    Ingredients

    • 2 tablespoons olive oil

    • 1 cup chopped onion

    • 3 cloves garlic, minced

    • 2 cups sliced mushrooms

    • 1 teaspoon dried thyme

    • 1 teaspoon salt

    • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper

    • 4 cups chicken broth

    • 3 cups rotisserie chicken, shredded

    • 1 cup heavy cream

    • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

    Directions

    • Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add chopped onions and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent burning.
    • Add minced garlic to the pot and cook for 1 minute, stirring continuously to release the flavors without allowing it to burn.
    • Increase the heat to medium-high and add the sliced mushrooms. Cook the mushrooms for about 5 minutes until they start to brown and release their moisture.
    • Add dried thyme, salt, and black pepper to the pot and stir well to ensure the mushrooms are evenly coated with the spices.
    • Pour in the chicken broth and bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 10 minutes to meld the flavors together.
    • Add shredded rotisserie chicken to the pot and stir to combine. Allow the chicken to heat through, cooking for an additional 5 minutes on low heat.
    • Stir in the heavy cream and let the soup simmer for another 2 minutes. Avoid letting the soup boil to prevent the cream from curdling.
    • Remove the pot from heat and stir in the chopped fresh parsley. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary before serving the soup warm.

    Tip of the Day

    “Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

    Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!

    Krispy Kreme’s Lemon Filled Doughnut Is Back — And This One Might Become Permanent

    A Memorial Day weekend dozen deal is a great opportunity to share rather than go it alone. Bringing a box to a cookout or potluck means you get to enjoy the indulgence while spreading the calories across a group — and you get to be the hero who showed up with donuts. If you’re buying two dozen, consider freezing half right away. Krispy Kreme doughnuts freeze well when wrapped tightly and can be revived in 10 to 15 seconds in the microwave, making it easy to enjoy them over the coming week rather than in one sitting.

    The Comfort Food Paradox: Why the Simplest Dishes Are the Hardest to Perfect

    Research on the psychology of eating has found that foods associated with positive memories and feelings of comfort produce measurable reductions in stress hormones including cortisol when consumed — an effect that is not present with nutritionally equivalent foods that lack these associations. The comfort in comfort food is, in other words, physiologically real — making the act of making and eating food connected to positive memory a genuinely health-supportive practice beyond its nutritional content alone.

    Salmon Patties

    Salmon is one of the richest dietary sources of omega-3 fatty acids, which support heart and brain health. Using canned salmon makes this a highly affordable, nutrient-dense protein option, and pan-frying in a modest amount of vegetable oil keeps the added fat minimal while delivering the golden, crispy exterior that makes these patties so satisfying.
