Super Easy Loaded Baked Potato Soup

I was given this recipe by a friend from church and tweaked it just a bit.  It's really good and perfect for a cool or cold day.  It's a great soup for vegetarians.  My husband and I loved this soup better than my potato soup recipe I've been making for years.  I hope you enjoy this warm, creamy, and filling soup.
