For a vegan option, substitute olive oil for butter and vegetable broth for chicken stock. Add a dollop of coconut cream instead of heavy cream for richness. To add depth of flavor, consider sautéing a pinch of red pepper flakes along with the onion and garlic. If you prefer a thinner soup, add more chicken stock or water to reach your desired consistency.
