If you love mushrooms you’re going to LOVE this creamy mushroom soup recipe. It’s filled with mushrooms and a subtle flavor of thyme. I’ve loved mushrooms since growing up and I’m ashamed to say I even devoured canned mushrooms right out of the can.

Fresh mushrooms are definitely a must for this recipe and since I’ve grown up I no longer eat them from a can either, ha!
