So we spent yesterday buried underneath snow. Well not technically but I’d call it that since it was a blizzard with 11 inches of snow on top of 4 inches already there. The temperature was -11 degrees with a windchill of -36. Are you shivering yet because I am just thinking about it. I was all bundled up inside. But one thing that did make me warm was soup.

Mushroom Soup

I have realized it’s a three way tie between my favorite soups: Tomato Basil, French Onion, and Mushroom. A while ago when my mama was visiting, we went to a little restaurant called Kitchenette where they had the most amazing Creamy Portobella Mushroom Brandy Soup. So that inspired this dish. Enjoy!

Cream of Mushroom Soup

I go ahead and buy the pre-sliced mushrooms but if you can't find them the processor will still be able to chop them up.
