1 teaspoon black pepper
½ teaspoon turmeric powder
1 tablespoon dried parsley

Add Califia Farms Unsweetened Almondmilk, vegetable broth, stir, and bring everything to a boil.
05
Once boiling begins, reduce heat to low and bring to a simmer.
06
Add in the broccoli florets and stir to incorporate.
07
Let everything continue to simmer for another 15-20 minutes or until veggies are completely cooked through and tender.
08
In the last 5 minutes of the simmering process, add in an arrowroot slurry (arrowroot + water mixed together in a small bowl) and stir until soup begins to thicken.
09
Repeat this step once again, if needed.
