Cut this in half and made as written using the beef broth. Delicious! I love mushroom soup and next time I am going to use a combo of mushrooms. Definately a keeper. Thank you for posting. Made for Spring PAC 2014.

Made as written with the exception of at the end of cooking time, I put mine in the blender for a bit as I am feeding my father in law and he's not to good and has to have smooth, but it has the most terrific flavour. I always think ugh! when I see mushroom soup but then you taste it and Mmmmm wonderful I used portobello mushrooms and that made it very dark but it was fab. thank you for posting Made for Honor thy Mother the diabetic forum.
