  1. That soup looks yummy! I've never heard of the 5 diet so going to google it and see what it is as looking for a new diet to lose some pounds 🙂 x

  2. I absolutely love mushrooms but I'm not a big fan of mushroom soup – I have only ever tried it tinned though so I'm spurred on to give this a go. I'm a Slimming World member so not doing 5:2 but it doesn't mean it won't taste great right? Your bowls are very pretty and the photographs are lovely!

  3. I love your dishes- what thoughtful children you have!
    Unfortunately I think I would be the only one in our home to enjoy mushroom soup…. but it definitely looks worth a try.

  4. That looks amazing! I love mushroom soup but I'm not hugely keen on the overly creamy canned stuff. Your version looks perfect. Please add it to #recipeoftheweek if you would like to x

  5. I love mushrooms and if I syn the milk and use frylight instead of the oil, this would make an excellent slimming world lunch. I'm pinning it so I don't lose it 🙂

  6. Beautiful bowls and gorgeous color combinations to create an ambiance. I love mushroom soups. The best thing is that yours in not loaded :).
