MUSHROOM SOUP
Soups are full of health benefits as described in this article by Rosie Schwartz , an eminent nutritionist from Canada. Being fond of soups, we have them from time to time, especially with dinner more than lunch. They can be made with a wide variety of veggies so some of my favourite soups include Tomato and Carrot Soup, Red Pumpkin Soup, and Spinach Soup.
Being quite partial towards mushrooms, I felt excited when I saw Quick Mushroom Soup from a cookery expert whom I admire so much, Nisha Madhulika and adapted this from her YouTube video.
