Hi again ATPF friends! It’s me Claire from A Little CLAIREification with another delicious recipe to share with you all. This one is perfect as temperatures are finally starting to drop and cooler weather is on the way.
When I met my Husband many years ago there were several things he did not like to eat that frankly puzzled me. In addition to things like mustard and broccoli, he also didn’t like mushrooms.
Now if he hadn’t liked cheese I would have said “the deal’s off, buddy”. 😉
Over the years he has come to love mustard and mushrooms and he still hates broccoli but I’ll let that one slide for now. The combination of creamy brie and wild mushrooms in this Mushroom and Brie Soup is amazing so I am thankful mushrooms are now fair game on our menus.
The delicious aroma of the sauteed mushrooms and all the ingredients simmering away on the stovetop is mouth watering.
While I love soup all year ’round, a warm bowl of hot soup on a chilly day is just hard to beat and this one is sure to warm those bellies. The recipe is below and I hope you’ll give it a try!
Feel free to pop over and say hello and until then I hope you all enjoy the beauty and colors of Fall, the pumpkins and everything else that comes with the season. See you all next month!
