Mushroom soup with gnocchi
The soups that I usually cook are creamy ones. They can be made from any kind and type of vegetables, served on their own or with some extras.
A nice extra may be an egg, rice, toast, cream puffs or, as I recently discovered, gnocchi.
If you do not own a blender you can skip blending this soup. The taste will remain as delicious as if blended. 🙂

Good to know when making mushroom soup.
If you like you can also add some carrots. They will make the soup slightly sweet.
Best is to use fresh thyme. If You do not have it then dry one can be used too.
