Toss mushrooms with a tablespoon of olive oil and layer on a baking sheet.
Toss the potatoes, jerusalem artichoke, potatoes and onion in a bowl with a little olive oil, salt and pepper. Layer on a cookie sheet or similar oven dish and bake for 40 minutes.

Combine all ingredients into a large bowl and use an immersion blender to puree.

Thank you for the mushroom soup recipe. In an effort to feel better overall and after reading numerous studies on health benefits of mushrooms, I am doing a lot of self experimentation (also so that I can recommend to others). Although I love, love, love – well maybe lets say I am just addicted to my morning cafe au lait – I have taken on the difficult task of cutting down. I have found a wonderful tea called Pu-erh – so far so good. Keep your recipes coming!!!
