Mushroom soup

When we were kids it was a treat to get cream of mushroom soup because my dad didn't really like it. I find now though, that I can't eat most canned soups. Not sure what they put in them (MSG??) but I end up feeling nauseous for about 2 hours after.

So now when you want cream of mushroom soup I'm forced to make it from scratch. Not a big deal really, as it's not time consuming and the flavour is 1000 times better than the canned stuff.

I try different recipes all of the time and this one from Hungry Cravings blog caught my eye as it has very little cream in it. The only thing I would change up on this soup is to saute some mushrooms and leave them in the soup rather than blend them all in just for some texture.


You can find the recipe HERE.

  1. I love that soup tureen. I've been looking for one that is a little modern but will be timeless as well.

  2. I never buy canned soup anymore - it's so full of sodium and other crap that it just tasted yucky to me. Homemade soup rocks!
