Week 2 - Creamy Mushroom Soup with Homemade Chunky Croutons! *shopping list*

Theres something about the snow and cold that makes me want to eat comfort food - stews, broth, soups!! Give me something warm that doesnt take long to make and im happy! :)

With that, this week we have our first savoury recipe. Creamy mushroom soup with homemade chunky croutons. (i always find shop bought croutons are too hard and almost crack my teeth so these can be cooked however you like them!)

Shopping list for Week 2 is....

Soup...
1&1/2lb white mushrooms (if you like a stronger taste you can sub any other or mix)
1 small onion (diced finely)
2 cloves of garlic (crushed)
12 1/2fl oz chicken or veg stock
8 1/2fl oz milk
4 fl oz single cream
6 fl oz white wine or water (dependent on taste and preference - either work just as well)

1/2 tsp salt
pepper to taste
1/2 tsp oregano
1/2 tsp thyme
