Recipe Note

This soup is full of fresh ingredients with immune-boosting properties. Making it in your pressure cooker helps retain those nutrients. It also makes use of broccoli stems that you might normally throw away, so it's a win-win recipe. It makes a lot, so you can freeze some for another day.
