Ingredients That Will Rock Your World!
Now, let’s gather the ingredients for our soup extravaganza:
- 2 cups fresh mushrooms, sliced
- 1 can (15 oz) crushed tomatoes
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 cups vegetable broth
- 1 cup heavy cream (or you can go lighter with milk)

- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh basil for garnish (optional but recommended)
Let’s Get Cooking!
The journey to soup heaven begins with a few simple steps. Trust me, it’s as easy as pie, or maybe even easier!
- In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Toss in the diced onions and sauté until they become translucent. We’re talking about the good kind of aromatic vibes here!
- Add the minced garlic and sliced mushrooms. Cook them until they’ve softened and released their delicious essence into the pot, about 5 minutes.
- Pour in the crushed tomatoes and vegetable broth, and give everything a nice stir. Increase the heat and bring the mixture to a boil. Then, reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 15 minutes. This is where the magic happens.
- Add the cream (or milk), and stir until well combined. Let it heat through for a couple more minutes. It should be comforting and creamy!
- Season with salt and pepper according to your taste. This is your soup; feel free to dance with the flavors!
- Serve hot and garnish with fresh basil if you like. A perfect addition to elevate your soup game!
