Notes

We made ours with real dairy butter- which is non-vegan. Our dish is vegetarian. If you are making this for a vegan make sure to use vegan butter.
If you are concerned with sodium, you can use your own vegetable stock or purchase low sodium stock. 
If you do not have an immersion blender you can let the soup cool for 20 minutes and add it to a food processor or blender- be careful this will still be very hot. 
This soup freezes and reheats well so you can double the recipe and have some ready to go.
