In reply to Simone. This is such a lovely compliment! I'm so happy you love it. I'll have to try it with the chicken-style stock. YUM! Thanks for sharing feedback. :)

Love this recipe so much! I come back to it time and time again. The only alterations I make are using vegan chicken style stock (OXO for any UK readers!) instead of vegetable, and I use spinach instead of kale. I've even sent this recipe to non-vegan friends who've made it (vegan!) and loved it! Thank you so much.

Absolutely loved this. I swapped out the butter beans for two cans of white beans. In addition, to save time and because my husband doesn't like cooked fresh tomatoes yet doesn't mind canned tomatoes (I know! don't ask!), I used a 14 oz. can of chopped tomatoes instead of a pint. This still came out great! Using the can also made cooking a little faster. I used Kite Hill brand vegan cream cheese which is made with almonds. An absolutely fantastic use of cream cheese. A yummy weeknight meal that will now go on repeat!

I decided to experiment with dried butter beans. I soaked them overnight then used my pressure cooker to cook them. Something went wrong as many of the beans were exploded. But I still used them in this recipe and it turned out to be a plus. It made everything even creamier. Thanks Melissa
