Healthy Creamy Chicken Mushroom Soup
Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons oil
- 10 ounces mushrooms, sliced
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 carrots, chopped
- 2 celery stalks, chopped
- 1 medium potato, peeled and cut in half
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 6 cups chicken stock
- 2 cups shredded chicken
- salt and pepper, to taste
Directions:
Heat the oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and cook until they are soft and starting to brown, about 10 minutes. Add the onion and cook until it softens, about 3-4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute more.
Add the carrots, celery, potato, thyme, chicken stock, and meat to the pot and bring to a boil. Reduce to heat to medium and simmer the soup for 20 minutes, or until the potato is soft.
Remove the two potato halves from the soup and put them in your blender. Add enough of the soup liquid so they will blend. Don’t worry if you get a few small pieces of the other veggies into your blender. Blend on high until smooth then return the ‘cream’ to the pot. Season to taste with sea salt and pepper.
