Notes

For a spicier soup, substitute jalapenos for cubanelle peppers. 
Heavy cream can be swapped with oat milk creamer for a richer soup
*Potato starch can clump up if it is not carefully and fully mixed quickly into your hot soup.  For best results, sprinkle rather than dump it in to your soup.  You should see thickening results in about 5 minutes.  
See above write-up for additional substitution and serving suggestions.
