Want! I love portobellas in place of meat. They're sturdy and have a great flavor. I use them a lot. Ooh..curried carrot soup! Want!

And I agree about the texture. Even when I make butternut or curried carrot soup, I only put half of the contents in the blender, and leave the rest so that there are chunky bits mixed in. Something a tad noxious about the puree. Wow, the portobello idea is f’ing brilliant! And I agree about the texture.

Darn, I thought I had a secret admirer. (yeah, right!) I think we all know that pureed version. Nothing about it appeals to me. :( Good to see you! Hi, sage! Darn, I thought I had a secret admirer.

Snow is a 4 letter word! ;) ~"so dreary when it’s a puddle of green puree, reminding me of Oliver Twist and his bowl of gruel"~ Exactly what I knew of split pea soup for 5 decades. Declared I didn't like it; even though I'd never actually tasted it. Until the day I ate a bowl of my brother-in-law's homemade; very much like your version. :) Soup Heaven :) Yes, we can do without snow.
