Creamy Mushroom Chestnut Soup
“Made with cremini mushrooms, packaged chestnuts, thyme, stock, onion, garlic, and just a touch of cream, the taste is reminiscent of cream of mushroom soup but is sweeter and less filling.

“Chestnuts are underused in savory dishes and this soup highlights them perfectly. Their texture is sweet and nutty, so they pair particularly well with cremini mushrooms, which have a slightly stronger and more earthy flavor than button mushrooms.

“Prepped fully on the stovetop, this soup is quick to prepare. It serves up to eight as a side dish, keeps nicely for leftovers, is ok to freeze and easy to reheat.”
