Notes

  • Variations
  • ACE Blender Recipe 
  • To make this soup in the Instant Pot ACE blender, simply add all the ingredients except the heavy cream to the blender. Press the soup button 2 times. Ladle into bowls, sprinkle some cayenne pepper for an extra kick. Enjoy hot with crunchy croutons.
  • Vegan - use Cashew cream instead of heavy cream. To make cashew cream simply blend ½ cup cashews with ½ cup of water until smooth. To make it nut-free and dairy-free use unsweetened coconut cream. I love Trader Joe's canned coconut cream
  • Canned Tomatoes -  work equally well in this soup, especially when tomatoes are not in season
  • Dried herbs - substitute freeze-dried herbs for the fresh by reducing the quantity in half
