    Incredible!
    DELICIOUS!!! I used veg broth instead of chicken broth. Also, sustituted coconut milk instead of light cream, no butter just olive oil. I used sweet potato and butternut squash. It was sooooo yummy; a vegan cold winter night comfort! An instant addition to our favorites, thanks! - 11/3/09
