Ingredients | Portobello Mushroom Sandwich

3 tablespoons margarine

¼ onion, chopped

2 large portobello mushroom caps, diced

2 (14 ounce) cans chicken broth, divided

1 large sweet potato, peeled and diced

2 tablespoons bacon bits

2 teaspoons garlic salt

½ teaspoon dried thyme

1 bay leaf

¼ cup half-and-half

4 ounces shredded Gouda cheese

Directions

Heat margarine in a pot and cook onion until soft and translucent, about 3 minutes. Add mushrooms and 1 can of chicken broth and cook for 5 minutes.

Add sweet potato and second can of chicken broth to the pot. Stir in bacon bits, garlic salt, thyme, and bay leaf, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer soup until sweet potato is soft, about 15 minutes.

Remove and discard bay leaf. Puree soup using an immersion blender until smooth. Stir in half-and-half and Gouda cheese and mix until well blended.

This is easily adapted into a vegetarian dish by substituting vegetable broth for chicken broth and omitting the bacon.
