Cream of Broccoli Soup

A quick, easy, cheap recipe I got from a friend (Laura Rich) who years ago tried to teach me how to cook. I am going to try it again soon, now that I'm one of the many unemployed and have the time to learn how to cook in earnest. I will be substituting the almond milk with soy milk. Let me know how it goes, if someone else tries cow's milk. Thanks! (Prep and cook times are wild, generous guesses.)
