Great combo that makes a light yet hearty soup. The flavors are great together and there is no shortage of the mushrooms. I love soups and this once again confirms that you really don’t need all of that fat from cream to have delicious and satisfying soup. I used the tiny Yukon Gold potatoes and sliced them thick, there’s lots to sink your teeth into and it should please the whole family. It’s high in the health scale too, it’s vegetarian, low fat and high in fiber. What more could you ask for in something that tastes so good!
