Creamy Dairy-free Stroganoff Bisque

This weather is getting me down. Instead of looking like Spring, it is feeling like those windy, snowy days of January. Cold weather always gets me in the mood for soup. But I must confess, this recipe was meant for a total different direction, and soup wasn’t one of them. This bisque might take the cake as in my most delicious, fast and easy category for soups. Some of you may criticize the canned ingredients. But these companies products are canned in BPA free cans!

I should add that I am a meal planner. One day a week is designated to prepping so meals are easy and fast throughout the week. One way I do this is by creating a large amount of protein such as chicken or ground beef. Today, I made 2 pounds of grass-fed beef with onions. I refrigerated half for later and added a pound of mushrooms to the other half in the pan. The recipe calls for a lot of garlic. I’ve discovered that if you are trying to get away from the coconut flavor, add more garlic.
