Until a few years ago I was a mushroom hater. But after one fantastic mushroom risotto I can’t get enough. We love this quick and easy recipe for cream of mushroom soup. It’s pretty light since the cream is really minimal but it’s super tasty and greatfor a weeknight meal.
Recipe Cream of Mushroom Soup
Ingredients
- 1 8 oz pack of mushrooms (I usually use whole mushrooms but they were all out this time)
- 1/2 small onion
- 1 potato peeled and diced
- 2 TBS butter
- 1 TBS chicken granuels
- 1/4 C heavy Cream
What to Do
- Chop mushrooms, onion and potato
- Saute with the butter in pot big enough for the whole recipe.
- Add 4 C hot water bring to a boil and add chicken granuels
- Blend with immersion blender (or you could use a regular blender)
- Add another 4 C water
- Add cream and stir
- Season to taste with salt and pepper
So easy right? It goes perfectly with Cheesey Jalapeno Rolls.
I know it’s really basic but it’s good old comfort food perfect for when you don’t know what you feel like.
Instant Pot Make Cream of Mushroom Soup Directions
Its super easy to make this simple mushroom soup in an electric pressure cooker. It comes together quickly and is so good.
Set the pot to saute add the butter onions and mushrooms. Saute for a few minutes. Add the granules or better than bouillon and 4 C water and cook on high pressure for 6 minutes with a 3 minute NPR.
Blend up the contents of the instant pot.
Add the cream and stir. You use less water in the Instant pot method because you don’t lose any in the cooking process.

Hi Marissa-
I love mushrooms, but besides using them in casseroles or stir fry, I don’t really use them so much. Mainly because I don’t know what else do do with them. This soup looks really, really good. I bet it’s super tasty, and it looks super simple to make.
Thank you so much for linking up to my Your Cozy Home Party. My party is rather new, so I appreciate seeing new “faces”. I didn’t see a link back to my blog, so please remember to include that. Thanks!
