Much more than a Mushroom Soup

Ingredients:

Carton of creamy mushroom soup (like this) or you can use 1 can of cream of mushroom soup
1 8oz package of mushrooms (I used button, but portabello could be nice), sliced

2-3 tablespoons butter
1/2 roasted read bell pepper, chopped
2.5 oz chopped hard salami
3 tablespoons white wine
1-2 cloves garlic crushed or diced
black pepper



Directions:

-In a sauce pan, pour the base soup (or make it if from a can)
-In a frying pan, melt butter and steam mushrooms in it at med heat until they become soft.
-Add black pepper, diced red roasted pepper, garlic and white wine. Allow the liquid from the mushrooms and the butter to reduced together with the wine. The mushrooms will reabsorb it.
- Add the hard salami, let the mixture cook together for a few minutes on low heat, meanwhile heat up the base soup.
- Add the contents of the frying pan to the sauce pan of base soup. Stir ingredients together.
-Serve with sourdough toast and goat cheese.




Ok, so she's not singing about mushrooms

ANNA! Can you put up some recipes for crock pots? I have one, but have never used it...because I'm scared.
If no, then how about a black bean soup?
