Ingredients

  • 1 lb cremini or baby Bella mushrooms roughly chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic peeled & finely chopped
  • ¼ teaspoon dried thyme
  • 3 cups low sodium vegetable broth
  • 1 tablespoon White miso paste
  • 3 tablespoon lemon juice approx 1 medium lemon
  • 1 cup unsweetened soy milk or plant milk of choice
  • salt + pepper to taste

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In a medium pot, or deep skillet, add the mushrooms, garlic, thyme and a couple drops of water to prevent sticking. Sauté until the mushrooms are reduced, approx. 4 minutes.
  2. Add the broth, miso paste and lemon juice and bring to a low boil, cooking for about 5 minutes. Turn off the heat, add the milk, and then use an immersion blender to puree your soup OR transfer to a blender. Taste and add salt and pepper, only if needed, and serve with crusty bread.

Notes

  • Do not salt your soup before tasting, once pureed. The miso paste and vegetable broth add a fair bit of saltiness. Once blended, taste the soup and add some, only if needed.
  • Use low sodium vegetable broth, or use a mix of regular broth and water if you don't have low sodium on hand. You can always add more salt if needed, but you cannot remove.
  • If you don't have an immersion blender, carefully transfer the soup to a blender and process until smooth. Use extreme caution when blending hot liquids, don't overfill your blender and work in batches, as needed!
  • Leftovers keep refrigerated for up 4 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
