Broccoli and White Bean Soup with Spinach and Toasted Almonds

Fall has dangling its cool temperatures and smells of damp leaves in my face for the past 48 hours. Before the heat returns this weekend, I had to make some soup!

Sauteed onions, garlic and shallot built up the base for this soup. Add broccoli (steamed), spinach, cannellini beans, almond milk, a splash of apple cider vinegar, lemon juice and your broth of choice, and blend.

Then, top with some toasted nuts, ladle into a mug, light a candle, crack open a book, stoke a fire, lay on a bearskin rug etc.
