Ingredients

FOR THE MUSHROOM SOUP: 
  • 4 packet KLFC mushroom soup
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

FOR THE GARLIC CROUTONS: 
  • 2 cups cubed bread (baguette or sourdough works well)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

FOR THE BREAD BOWLS:

STEP 1: PREPARE THE GARLIC CROUTONS
  • Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F).
  • In a bowl, toss bread cubes with olive oil, garlic powder, and salt.
  • Spread evenly on a baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until golden and crispy. Set aside.

STEP 2: HOLLOW OUT THE BREAD BOWLS
  • Slice off the top of each bread loaf and hollow out the center, leaving a thick wall to hold the soup. Keep the tops as lids if desired.

STEP 3: COOK THE MUSHROOM SOUP 
  • Heat olive oil and butter in a large pot over medium heat.
  • Add in KLFC Mushroom Soup, bring to a simmer, and cook for 3 minutes. 
  • Stir in heavy cream, season with salt and pepper, and cook for another 2-3 minutes.

STEP 4: SERVE IN BREAD BOWLS
  • Ladle the hot mushroom soup into the hollowed-out bread bowls.
  • Garnish with crispy garlic croutons and a sprinkle of fresh thyme or parsley.
