Place all the washed and chopped vegetables in a soup pot on the stove and add the broth, spices, and water. **By the way if you don't want to chop and drop all these carrots/onions/ and celery...you can buy a 12 ounce bag of them already frozen and chopped in the freezer section of the grocery store. ***Bring all the vegetables to a boil and simmer until they are tender, about 40 minutes. When they are tender add the almond milk, stir and serve. NO, you don't drain the potatoes and add milk and butter, Trust me, you don't need it. just add the almond milk, and maybe a teaspoon of ghee to the starchy water and enjoy!
