This is one of my favorite dishes from my childhood. My grandmother would make this dish often and as a teenager I loved it. Although it is traditionally served as a side dish for any type of meat I usually eat it all by itself as a meal. I just season it with black pepper and red pepper and find that it doesn't need any additional salt. The soups are salty and I use salted butter so no need to add more. To me this is the epitome of comfort food.
Ingredients:
1 (8 ounce) can sliced mushrooms, drained
2 (14 ounce) cans chicken broth (14 ounces each can)
1 (10 3/4 ounce) can cream of mushroom soup
