MMMMushroomy..beany soup~







Sometimes I see a recipe..like those apple tartlets..and just by looking at it..I know I'll love it..One of my daughters Pinned a recipe..and I thought:"YES"!
Will love..
And I did..
It was posted in 2011!
You can find the delicious White Bean And Mushroom Soup recipe here.

I apologize for not retyping and adding links..but since Blogger changed last yr..I have been unable to copy and paste without thick white distracting lines..Must be my dark charcoal background.
I tried..because I know FG needs a recipe..And I thought it was fun to FG..but my Blogger just cannot do it..
I'm not going to stop sharing :) So thanks for your understanding~

Back to the soup..Roasting the Mushrooms..Onions..Garlic and herbs..just puts this little hearty soup in a different mushroom soup category..
I had white navy beans(sounds so oxymoronish)..so I used those..  and I drained them.. :)  Had to..  force of habit..the rest..the same.
Hope you try it.
One of my daughters..the one who actually PInned this first:).. did and loved it also..next time she is adding more mushrooms..me too:)

I love that raccoon.
He's just the most  perfect pet raccoon you could ever have.

It's that time of year again..
My outdoor plants bid me ADIEU..
My indoor plants bid me BONJOUR~
The Christmas Cacti..Whites..Pale Pinks..Dark Pinks and Corals~
They light up my life..
Not like my pet raccoon at all..
and no..he would not eat that soup..
But nevertheless..
The indoor plants..ease the transition..from Abundance..to none..indoors~♥
Easiest bloomin'plants to grow indoors!
Have a great weekend~
Can you tell it's chilled up here?
The soup proves it:)

    Monique, what a wonderful combination of ingredients, mushrooms and white beans! I love them both and putting them together in one soup is a perfection! I love that cute raccoon outfit! Is it going to be his Halloween costume?

    Monique, my "chef" is an ardent fan of mushrooms. I'll share this link to the recipe. He makes a delicious white bean soup. He'll like the addition of the mushrooms. Thanks!
    Chilly up your way? Our best days are here now with cool nights and pleasant sunny days.
    Hope you have a fun weekend!

      Enjoy the weather..Sarah I will be curious to know if your favourite chef drains his beans..both my daughter and I hate the liquid they come in..I just pulsed more beans to thicken nicely.

    That soup looks so inviting in this cold night! I will make it this weekend, i have mushrooms that need to be used. We will have our first frost tonight...i just ran outside and picked the last of my tiny tomatoes...some of them green. That little raccoon looks so cuddly and cute...would love to hug him!

    Oh, delicious! I love your description of the fond goodbye to the outdoor flowers, and bonjour to the indoor plants - in my case, several pink geraniums and two rosemary plants. Not enough sunny windows for much more. Nana - we are getting snow on Sunday! - so I assume you will get it before me, give or take a few hours. Time to find the wool socks:)

    We had a couple of days of fall weather and all of a sudden, winter and freezing temps in the morning. It is most definitely soup time and we love anything with mushrooms. Again, your photos are incredible Monique. Have a lovely weekend.

    Doesn't this soup look fantastic. I love soups in winter...can't have enough recipes, because we do get tired of eating the same ones over and over...so I am happy to have a new one.
    The racoon is adorable and the cacti reminds me of my mother, she had them in all colours on her wide porch.

    Lovely to have a new way for making mushroom soup , I too always rinse my beans to get rid of that gloopy stuff, and would blend a few to make it thicker.
    I haven't seen white Christmas Cacti here. so while I'm looking for Paperwhite bulbs this weekend I'll have to be more observent and hope I can find one.Yours looks lovely and already full of buds.Love your littlest grandson wearing his raccoon hoody. Have a lovely weekend. Did I read you are due to have snow ? already !

      Yes snow.. shhh maybe if Mother Nature doesn't hear us..it will not happen..
      The adj town had snow..last night..very little..we escaped:)
      There is a lovely lovely pale peach Christmas Cactus too Barbara..it should bloom soon..I will show you..The white is very dear because most are so vibrant ..this is soft..some pink in the pistils..but delicate..
      Little birds cacti blooks remind me of~
      So easy to propagate..
      HATE the gloopy!

    Your little racoon may not have eaten the soup, but he has cheered my heart. What a cutie pie! As usual a beautiful feast for the eyes. Your photographs are always so beautiful. xxoo

      I t has been years since I have bought a plate Marie:)
      Yrs ago we could go to a Chrsitmas Tree Shop in Burlington Vermont..loved the drive..and the store had fun items..(not Christmas except at Christmas)..for such great prices..as in $0.99 a plate for quirky little ones..The stores were sold..and things were never the same in that shop..so we have not returned..I worked back then..
      And ..well my mom's things.. and 40 yrs of marriage.. you tend to save things.
      You always say such nice things Marie..you know I have learned so much from you and my husband apprecitaes every meal or dessert he has eaten gleaned from you:)
      Thank you.

    In Russia The Christmas Cacti - is very popular plant, but we call it - December plant-)) I remember how beautiful it was around New Years eve, pink flowers, and so many of them. And mushroom soup is amazingly delicious, I can smell aroma of the mushrooms from here-)
