I made 2 servings using 2 large dried mushrooms (which I soaked in very hot water for 1 hr and then sliced before adding to soup) and veggie stock and the mushroom soaking water in place of the water. I added the onion with the other veggies and saved the butter and flour calories. Very light and with a good flavor. This soup and a toasted fat free cheese sandwich just hit the spot tonight.

    Very good soup with hardly any work. I made this to use up 1/2 package of shiitake mushrooms and some vegetables. I used cilantro in place of the parsley and shallots in place of the onions. This was great for a no meat, low cal meal. Thanks for sharing!

    Healthy, tasty veggie soup. I used dried shitaki mushrooms and 4 frozen cubes of fresh parsley. I did add 1 tbsp of worchestershire sauce and did not thicken it with flour. Thanks Chia loved it.
