Easy Cream of Mushroom Soup
Easy Cream of Mushroom Soup
We like to serve this soup with croutons.
Ingredients
Serves 4
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 pound sliced fresh mushrooms
1/4 cup chopped onion
6 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
2 cans (14-1/2 ounces each) chicken broth
1 cup half-and-half cream
Directions
In a large saucepan, heat butter over medium-high heat; sauté mushrooms and onion until tender.
Mix flour, salt, pepper and one can broth until smooth; stir into mushroom mixture. Stir in remaining broth. Bring to a boil; cook and stir until thickened, about 2 minutes. Reduce heat; stir in cream. Simmer, uncovered, until flavors are blended, about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
