I'm allergic to dairy, so I used almond milk instead of regular milk and it turned out great!

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my soup turned out bland and watery. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what I did wrong.

I'm not a huge fan of celery, but I didn't even notice it in this soup. It added a nice crunch without being overpowering.

The soup was a bit too thick for my taste, but it was easily fixed by adding a little more milk.
