I decided to do two big batches of cream of mushroom soup and freeze it so I could have it on hand. It is too easy to skip...not to mention you know actually what is in and what is NOT in it.
Thanks to Amy for the inspiration!
Cream of Mushroom Soup
8oz fresh mushrooms
4TBSP butter
4 cups milk
1/2 cup flour
1 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
2 tsp parsley
1 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp garlic salt
Depending on the size of mushroom chunks you perfer, chop your mushroom. Know that they do cook down significantly. I don't mind chunks, so I always do a rough chop.
Saute your mushrooms in the butter and when they are almost done, throw in the spices. In the mean time, mix together your flour with 1 1/2 cups milk. Stir it until smooth and add it to the mushrooms.
