Creamed Mushroom Soup with Crab Meat is the Perfect Fall Meal

If you're looking for a comforting and delicious fall meal, look no further than this creamy mushroom soup with crab meat. It's simple to make and packed with flavor.

The star of this soup is the mushrooms. You can use any type of mushrooms you like, but we recommend using a variety of different kinds for the best flavor. (You can find a list of different types of mushrooms below.) Sauté the mushrooms in butter until they are soft, then add some garlic and thyme for extra flavor.

To make the soup creamy, we use a combination of milk and cream. You could also use half and half or even whole milk if you prefer. Once the mushrooms are cooked, add the milk and cream to the pan and let it simmer until it thickens up.

Add some cooked crab meat to the soup just before serving for a boost of flavor and protein. This soup is perfect for a chilly fall day!

1 tablespoon butter

8 ounces mushrooms, sliced

1 teaspoon garlic, minced

1 teaspoon thyme leaves
