I recently checked out Slow Cooker: The Best Cookbook Ever. While leafing through the soups I discovered this mushroom soup recipe. My family loves mushrooms and I thought it would be a nice accompaniment to some steaks I was planning on cooking up. I was not wrong. This mushroom soup (recipe link) was creamy and full of flavor. I will be making this one again and again.
In my mind you can never go wrong with a recipe that starts with bacon. The dried porcini mushrooms were a little difficult to find. The first grocery store I went to had never heard of dried mushrooms but I found them at Whole Foods with no problem. A friend suggest that I try the wild mushroom mix at Costco next time.

Mmm, I love mushrooms, so I will definitely be checking out this recipe!
ReplyDeleteThis sounds delicious! Although my husband isn't a big soup person, so I'm not sure he'd eat it. Except it has mushrooms in it, which he's a big fan of, so maybe...
ReplyDeleteOh we love soup, mushrooms, and using the slow cooker! Perfect for us. I've never heard of this cookbook -- I'll have to see if the library has it.
ReplyDeleteSounds delicious!!! I'm not sure I could get the others here to eat it but maybe with a bit of rice... And um YES to bacon! ;)
ReplyDeleteYes, this sounds delicious and low-carb for my husband, mushroomy for me. I got a new slow cooker at Thanksgiving, but have only used it once!
