This delicious 30-minutes soup is ideal for all the soup and quick recipe lovers. Creamy mushrooms with sun-dried tomatoes, spinach and beans. Super delicious, full of flavor, and simple to prepare!

You won’t need many complicated ingredients to prepare this delicious soup. Actually, you probably already have them all in your kitchen.

You can choose some other type of mushrooms if prefered. I have used button mushrooms this time since they are the most available ones and the ones I use most often in cooking.

Sun-dried tomatoes are one of my favorite ingredients ever. I see them as being the essence of mediterranean summer flavors, joining ripe and by drying, intensified in flavor tomatoes,extra virgin olive oil and a bunch of mediterranean herbs. Can it be any better!?

Then beans. I love them in all kinds of ways. And their role in this recipe is to make the dish a little more hearty and to make if sufficient on its own as a soup.

Spiachis super healthy and I love the vibrant kick it gives to the soup.

When eating these kind of soups and stews, I always like having some good bread on the side to enjoy dunking. Heat it in a pan, add a drizzle of olive oil and let it crisp up. It brings the dish to another level!
