Mushroom bisque soup (sopa de champiñones)

Other delicious soup recipe.
 Apparently I move between soups and desserts, but no, we really do everything but when a soup is as rich as this one, it's worth taking pictures and publishing it.

In fact, I have other recipes waiting for post, but as spring will  arrive in the northern hemisphere, I would prefer to share it now.
Here the summer is  almost over and my favorite season is here soon : autumn.
But I have already told you that I eat soups almost all year round.
And I love it....
