Review:

Remarkable how something so simple can yield such delicious results! A definite winner for both the simple cook and the soup enthusiast.

Suggestion:

You can add ham (or bacon) for a little twist. Also, Olive Oil works fine if you don't have a low fat spray. Adding a clove or two (to taste) of garlic with the onions rounds off the flavour nicely,

Paleo Mushroom Soup

1 Medium Onion

1 Clove of Garlic

1 lb Mushrooms

2 Cubes of Vegetable Stock

1 tbsp Olive Oil

Soften the garlic and onion in the oil. Cut up the mushrooms and add to the pan, cook until they start to soften; add stock and simmer for 10 mins.

Blend until all big lumps are gone (will still have a slightly textured feel to it).

Review:

A lovely thick mushroom soup that be tailored to your taste by experimenting with different mushroom types.

Suggestion:

Add some more stock (or water if the stock taste is too over powering) if your soup blends up too thick.
