It appears you have the wrong photo with this recipe. The soup pictured is not creamy and the vegies are not pureed. Looks like just a version of veg soup.

Hi there! While this is a creamy soup, the vegetables are also a little chunky for the purpose of the photo. If you would like to puree the vegetables completely, the Test Kitchen believes that it would make for a delicious soup. Enjoy!
