Bouillon is usually near the soups. I wonder if you could substitute Rice milk?

Bouillon cubes can either come in a small box or a clear container. Looks like Walmart carries these kinds: link

The cream is also designed to thicken the soup. Can you add almond milk? I'm not familiar with what taste it has. If you don't mind the soup being thinner, you could use the almond milk. However, if you want it thicker, you have a few options you could try. You could thicken it with a starch (corn starch, potato starch, arrowroot) if you have any. If you have a blender/food processor, you could blend like 1/2-1 cup of the soup with the vegetables (especially the potatoes) and add it back in. Lastly, you could add either some bread crumbs or small pieces of fresh bread.

The recipe doesn't call for butter, but you can certainly saute the vegetables first.

If you use cornstarch, mix it in some water first so that it doesn't make lumps. Make a slurry and slowly add it to the soup while stirring to prevent clumps from forming. Do this at the end before you serve.

you can switch up cream for yogurt, might make a slightly different taste, but no allergens (if that is the problem)

I can't have yogurt either makes my ibs REALLY bad. so do alot of things people have everyday, for example if I had even 1 pop of any kind i'd be so uncomfortable and sick I'd be crying.

Glad to help. I do cook a lot.

From the recipe, it looks like you could use canned yams, but try to find plain yams. You don't want glazed or else it would probably be too sweet.

Usually the sweetened ones will say "candied" or "glazed" and will look like it has a syruppy sauce. They would probably still work as long as you drain/wash off the glaze. The main thing is that the glaze is extremely sweet and may throw off the flavor of that soup.
