Pro Tips
- Don't overcook — overcooked broccoli loses its beautiful green color and turns gray.
- For vegan version: Replace cannabis butter with cannabis oil, heavy cream with oat milk, and Parmesan with nutritional yeast.
- Don't bring the soup back to a boil after pureeing — this preserves cannabinoids better.
