For a vegetarian version, omit the bacon and use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth. Consider adding a teaspoon of smoked paprika for a smoky flavor.
To achieve a smoother consistency, use an immersion blender to partially or fully puree the soup before serving.
Garnish with a swirl of cream or a dollop of plain yogurt and a sprinkle of fresh rosemary for an extra touch of elegance.
