Healthy Mushroom Onion Soup
There's absolutely no reason why you can't make this healthy mushroom onion soup! Once you watch the video, you'll say 'Yes! I can!'
The type of mushroom best for this soup is the baby bella. If you can't source that mushroom, then regular mushrooms work. You'll want the mushrooms to vary in size, some large, medium and small. Also, another option is to use a mushroom blend like shitake, oyster, beech, baby bellas.
Caramelized Onion and Mushroom Soup
The most time consuming part of this recipe? Caramelizing the onions for the soup. Just take a deep breath. It takes some time. Great caramelized onions don't happen in a flash.
But, once those onions are caramelized, well, it's all down hill from there!
Mushroom and Onion Soup No Cream
Now, I'm not using heavy cream in my soup. You can certainly add if you wish for more creaminess. But, I wanted the earthy simple flavor of the onions and the mushrooms. And, yep, that's what we have.
Mushroom Broth French Onion Soup
