Came out a little thinner than we had expected, so we added a tiny bit of flour in the end to thicken, but it was delicious. Maybe a mixture of different types of mushrooms would make this dish even more exciting. Very good as is though, and would certainly make this again. Wonderful cold weather recipe!

What a delicious soup! I used a can of white kidney beans and a can of Romano beans. When I made the herbes de provence I didn't have lavender so the herb mixture wasn't authentic but the flavour was still wonderful. Made for Zaar Stars Tag.

I love that this is not only quick and simple, but healthy and delicious, too! I made this just as written. The herb flavors get even better when it's reheated. This soup is a keeper. Thanx!

I made this with portobello mushrooms, fresh organic tomatoes, and no white wine (sister doesn't like the taste), and it was delicious! Thanks for the recipe. :D
