Quickie Soup for Lunch

 How???
Place all ingredients, except the cream cheese, in a small saucepan and simmer until the vegetables are soft. Drain the vegetables, reserving the stick. Blend the vegetables with a stick blender, adding reserved stock until you achieve the desired consistency. Mix in the cream cheese and season to taste.
