Ingredients

• 1.5 lbs mushrooms sliced
• 4 tbsp butter
• 1 medium onion diced
• 3 cloves garlic minced
• 4 cups vegetable broth
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 0.75 tsp salt
• 0.5 tsp black pepper

Instructions

1. Heat butter in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add diced onion and sauté 4-5 minutes until softened.
