Mushroom Soup with a blend to it

[ereino]

Hi guys,

Made the following blended soup this weekend.  Ingredients:

Amount of each to taste:
Scallions
Celery
Garlic Gloves (I put in 2)
Home made chicken stock
Place in a spice bag:  1/2 cinnamon stock and 1 star anise - let it cook in pot for about 10 minutes then remove).... these two spices give it a nice warm flavor/feel.
Red hot pepper flakes
At the end of cooking cycle, add:
Kale
Mushrooms (used baby bella)
Continue to Cook down probably another 15 minutes.

Let sit to cool down somewhat and then blend it down

I micro waived some for lunch today and added about two tablespoons of feta cheese

It was really a nice treat
