Cooking tip: Tough week ahead? Make this soup in advance, freeze it in a container, and then reheat in a pot over the stovetop with a splash of water.

Ingredients:

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/4 cup chopped shallots (40g)
  • 20 ounces button mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
  • 2 3/4 cups water
  • 2 (14.5 ounce) cans chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Directions:

  1. Heat oil in a large soup pot over medium-high heat. Add shallots, sliced mushrooms and thyme. Cook 10 minutes, until mushrooms are lightly browned.
  2. Add chicken broth and water, bring to a simmer, reduce heat and continue to simmer 10 minutes.
  3. Remove from heat; add cream. Purée in batches in a blender. Return soup to pot; add salt and pepper to taste. Stir in lemon juice before serving. Each serving is about 1 cup.
