Cream of Mushroom Soup

Ditch the can! When growing up, a can of Campbell’s mushroom soup was always stocked in the pantry. It was quick to heat without any special technique. Now that I try to stay far away from canned food, I discovered that making it myself not only taste WAY better, but also takes very little effort. This soup will be a great addition to your effortless go-to recipes. I buy prepackaged chopped cremini mushrooms and whip this up within 15-20 minutes. It is a great pairing to the side of a salad or sandwich for lunch, or a great appetizer to any American meal. You’re going to love this one.
