This is a perfect example of when less is best. I used part vegetable and part chicken broth. And backed off the cream to 1/2 cup. Lovely and light. Season to taste.
I added a scoop of whey protein powder when blending/pureeing it. It made it more of a real meal and thickened it too.
I found 6 cups of chcken broth to be too much! I prefer a thicker soup so next time will reduce broth and/or add potatoes.
