Notes
- Recipe from Everyday Ingredients Extraordinary Meals
- SUBSTITUTIONS: For a lighter soup, you can use milk instead of cream and light cream cheese instead of regular cream cheese. The soup won’t be as rich or thick, but will still be delicious!
- FREEZE: I don’t recommend freezing this soup because of how much dairy is in it.
- STORE: Store any leftovers in the refrigerator for 3-5 days. Reheat gently on the stove or in the microwave.
