Mushrooms.   It seems that you either love them… or hate them.  I am in the love them category.  I love them baked, fried, sauteed, fresh on a salad, on a pizza and obviously… in soup!   This Creamy Button and Bella Mushroom soup combines two types of mushrooms with a little thyme in a milk/ cream base.  It’s really wonderful… well… unless you aren’t a mushroom fan. 😉

I suppose that you could add any mushroom variety to this soup, but I chose buttons and portabellas.  They both have a great mushroom flavor, but they don’t overpower the soup!

I just love this soup.  It’s especially good with White Cheddar French Bread croutons… mmm!

 There is nothing like a good bowl of Creamy Mushroom Soup!
