Notes

For a smoother texture, blend the soup with an immersion blender before serving.
If you have a nut allergy, substitute peanut butter with sunflower seed butter or tahini.
To add more protein to the soup, consider incorporating tofu or tempeh.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat on the stove or in a microwave before serving.
