We have a delicious soup to share today that is a bit different than a lot of our other soups. We found the base recipe for this altered recipe in the American Heart Association’s Healthy Slow Cooker Cookbook (which by the way we are totally loving!). Now, I say this recipe is altered because we used regular beef broth rather than salt free bouillon, a different kind of mushroom and we use real butter instead of margarine. So if you are looking for something “healthy” you are going to need to make those decisions based on your dietary needs. Regardless I really do like the ideas in that cookbook!

- Now this recipe calls for a handful of ingredients that some folks don’t normally cook with (shallots, leeks, sherry, crimi (baby bella) mushrooms), so we are going to share substitutions for those ingredients you might not be as familiar with, however if you do have the chance to try it with the original ingredients, I highly recommend that you do.
- This recipe is crocked up in a 3 to 4 quart slow cooker and serves four but could easily be doubled for bigger families. Just make sure to use a bigger slow cooker.

Delicious looking recipe. I will have to try it.
Hi Julia-
I typically just buy the cooking sherry you can find near the vinegar at the grocery store. Enjoy!
What kind of sherry do you use? I would love to try cooking with sherry, but I don’t know anything about sherry or buying it. I am assuming it needs to be good enough to drink by itself.
