This soup is a great way to use up leftover chicken or turkey. I simply added some cooked chicken to the soup and it was delicious. The soup is also very easy to make, which is a bonus.

I'm not a big fan of mushrooms, but I really enjoyed this soup. The mushrooms are cooked until they're soft and flavorful, and the thyme adds a nice touch of herbiness. The soup is also very creamy and comforting.
