Mushroom Soup
We started with a base mushroom soup recipe and then kind of did our own thing.
New Addition: Chop up some bacon and fry it up first. It adds a lot of great flavor to the soup.
Butter - 1/2 stick - melt slowly in pan
Chop and Add and Cook
Onion - 1/4 medium red onion - I think I will use 1/2 next time.
Mushrooms - 2+ cups (use more or less if you like)
Sprinkle 1/4 cup flour over mushrooms (stir a little)
Add 1 cup whipping cream and a couple 14oz cans of chicken stock
Stir good and cook slowly. Let boil for maybe 10 to 15 minutes stirring every now and then.
Add 3 - 5 beef bouillon cubes and let dissolve
The base recipe called for 1/4 cup cooking sherry. It was so good, we skipped it.
IT WAS FANTASTIC
Note: We had two chicken breasts we had grilled a couple days before. We chopped them up really small and added them. It was great this way.
