Cream of mushroom soup has been a favorite of mine as long as I can remember. Of course when we were growing up it was Campbell's and it came in a can. Mushroom cream soup was one of my favorites growing up so I'm so glad to have this dairy-free alternative that's honestly so good you don't miss the cream at all. I cooked the mushrooms in batches to avoid the "steaming" problem one reviewer had. I also went heavier on the mushrooms, probably.
