Simple Mushroom Soup

Submitted by alvinakatz

"This soup is simple to make, low in calories, and tastes much richer than you would expect. You can spice it up with some chili powder and add increase the quantity of broth to make it more liquid. You can leave it chunky or blend it for a smoother texture."

This recipe couldn't be much easier! I made half of the recipe for lunch today and it was just perfect. I had beef broth on hand so I used that, made the recipe exactly as listed and just sprinkled some chopped chives on top. I used quite a bit of pepper - I like that in soup! Made for my fellow Chef Gone Wild for ZWT8. Thanks alvinakatz! :)

I made a few changes and loved the result of the soup. It made a quick lunch and was filling without being too heavy. I used butter flavored cooking spray instead of oil & added a few onions too. For seasonings I used Mrs Dash (original), fresh cracked black pepper, and the paprika. The soup was thin, but could be easily thickened a bit if that floats your boat.

Made using cremini's and it turned out to be delicious. It's light but satisfying and the health factor fabulous. It's easy peasy too. Made for ZWT 8

This is a nice light soup, quick and easy to prepare. It really does have a surprising creaminess to it. Good for mushroom lovers. Thanks for sharing! ZWT9
