Today's recipe is in honor of a dear friend of mine...Heather Schefter. For those of you who don't know this beautiful woman of God, her and her husband, Ed, pastor the New York City Church. They planted this church in Times Square over a year ago. She celebrated a birthday this week and I wanted her to know publicly, she is passionately loved and missed!
Thank you Heather for sharing this with me and many of your friends...

YUM!!! I will second the fact that this carrot soup of Heather's is super yummy!
Some 20 years ago Lisa, an old friend of mine, shared her Cream of Mushroom soup recipe and it instantly became a favorite.
Cream Of Mushroom Soup
1 pound fresh mushrooms, thinly sliced
1/4 cup butter
1 small onion, chopped
3 cloves garlic, chopped
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
4 cups chicken broth
1 cup cream
salt and pepper to taste.
Melt the butter in a heavy-based pan and cook the onion and garlic, stirring, for 1 minute, or until the garlic is golden. Add the mushrooms and salt and pepper. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes, or until the mushrooms just soften. Add flour and cook, stirring for 1 minute. (At this point I sometimes take 1/3 of the mixture and put it in the food processor to chop it up.)
Remove from the heat and add the chicken broth, stirring continuously. Return to the heat and bring to boil, stirring. Reduce heat and simmer gently for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Whisk the cream into the soup, then reheat gently, stirring. Do not allow the soup to boil. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Enjoy!!
