Ingredients Needed for Cream of Mushroom Soup

Mushrooms: I recommend using white button mushrooms or brown button mushrooms for this recipe.
Onion: Onions are high on flavor but also contain about 12g of net carbs per 1 cup. Just be mindful to measure out the onions.
Whipping cream: This ingredient gives the soup that creamy texture. You can increase or decrease the amount to your liking, but I recommend starting off with 1/4 cup for this recipe. Too much cream takes away from the other flavors in the soup.
Butter: You can substitute ghee or olive oil.
Fresh Garlic: You can use a garlic press or mortar and pestle to mash the garlic. Garlic will taste differently if it’s chopped vs. being mashed.
Fresh Oregano: If you can’t find fresh oregano, then you can substitute dried oregano or fresh thyme. I highly recommend using fresh oregano if possible.
Salt and pepper

Equipment Needed for Cream of Mushroom Soup

Wooden spatula
Non-stick large pot
Cutting board and chef’s knife
Garlic press or mortar and pestle (to mash the garlic)
Handheld immersion blender

Instructions

Prepare the vegetables. Slice the mushrooms. Chop the onions. Smash the garlic. Finely chop the fresh oregano.
Cook the vegetables in butter. Set a large pot to medium-high heat, add the butter. Once melted, add the garlic and onions. After the onions are starting to turn golden, add the mushrooms and fresh oregano. Cook for about 2 to 3 minutes.
Make the soup. Add the water and beef bouillon. Turn the stovetop to high heat and cover the pot. Cook the soup for about 10 to 15 minutes or until the mushrooms are tender.
Blend. Using a handheld immersion blender, blend the mushroom soup smoothly.
Whisk in the cream, salt, and pepper.

Tips and Variations

My biggest tip for this recipe is using fresh garlic and fresh oregano if possible. You can’t beat fresh herbs and garlic when making a flavorful soup.
You can experiment with different variations of mushrooms for this recipe, but I recommend using the white or brown button mushroom to start off.
