Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter
  • 6 oz fresh mushrooms (any kind), finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup onion, finely chopped
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • Freshly ground pepper, to taste
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream or half and half
  • 1/2 cup sodium reduced chicken broth

Directions

1. Place butter in a large skillet over low heat. When the butter has melted add the diced mushrooms and onions and sauté for about 8 minutes or until they are tender. Season with freshly ground black pepper, to your liking.

2. Add the garlic and cook briefly for 2 minutes. Add flour and cook for 2 more minutes. Quickly stir in cream and chicken broth until smooth. Bring all to a boil and boil for about 1 minute. Remove the pan from the heat, taste and adjust the seasoning if needed.

3. Cool before transferring to a jar or freezer-safe container. Once soup is completely cool, store it in the refrigerator or freezer.

To reconstitute this condensed soup – add 1 1/2 cups of chicken broth, milk, water, or a combination.

This recipe makes 1 1/2 cups of condensed soup which will make approximately 3 servings with each serving having 248 calories and 34mg sodium. Whatever you use to reconstitute this condensed soup will still need to be added in.
