Brown Butter Mushroom Soup

 

 

I found this recipe at All Day I Dream About Food. I love mushroom soup in any form. Even Geoff liked it, and he is not that fond of soup. The one thing I did notice however, was that the soup is very thin. I think next time I will only add 3 cups of broth, and I would also leave some pieces of mushroom so I would have "chunks" of mushroom in my soup. Serve this with a side salad, and you have a nice lunch. This lasted me for 4 lunches, and one snack on Sunday afternoon for Geoff and I.
