300kcal
Ingredients
- 3 cup brown mushrooms Bellini, Cremini, Shitake, mix as desired
- 2 cup skim milk
- 1/3 cup onion diced
- 1 clove garlic whole
- 2 tablespoon butter low salt
- 1 tablespoon flour
- 2 teaspoon chicken bouillon base or 1/2 chicken bouillon cube
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper ground
- 1 dash dill weed one or two dashes
Method
- Sauté the mushrooms and diced onion in butter over medium heat for a few minutes until softened and fragrant; toss the whole garlic clove into the pan to warm through.
- Reserve a small portion of the sautéed mushrooms, dice them fairly small and divide among serving bowls for garnish.
- Put the remaining sautéed mushrooms, warmed garlic clove, skim milk, flour, chicken bouillon base, black pepper and dill weed into the Vitamix (or regular blender) in the order listed.
- If using a Vitamix: start the blender on low, quickly turn the dial to 10, then switch to high and blend for about 6 minutes on high until steaming and smooth.
- If you don’t have a Vitamix: pulse the mixture in a regular blender until smooth, then return to a saucepan and heat gently until steaming.
- Ladle the hot soup into bowls over the reserved diced mushroom bits and serve with sliced baguette or bread on the side.
