Creamy Spiced Mushroom Soup Low Fat And Vegan Recipes

CREAMY VEGAN MUSHROOM SOUP

Steps:

• Begin by cutting up the veggies--onion, garlic, and mushrooms. Some people like to cut their onions in larger crescent shapes for soups like this, but I prefer to dice them up a bit smaller.
• Place the onions and garlic in a medium or large stockpot with about 3 tablespoons of water or veggie broth and saute them for approximately 5 minutes.
• Next, add 2 cups of vegetable stock, sliced mushrooms, thyme, ginger, white wine, salt, and pepper. Cook for another 5 minutes.
• Add 1 cup of the unsweetened almond milk or other plant milk and allow to cook for approximately 5 more minutes.
• To thicken the soup, you can use a number of different thickeners including cornstarch or flour. I really like to use arrowroot powder because it tends not to clump as much as other thickeners.
• Place the arrowroot or other thickener in a bowl with the other cup of cold plant milk and whisk together until it becomes a bit frothy in a minute or so.
• Pour the slurry thickener into the soup and continue stirring for a couple of minutes as it begins to thicken. If the soup is too thin, add a little more arrowroot powder to some cool water or plant milk and pour it into the soup.
• Remove the pot of soup from the heat as soon as it reaches the desired thickness. If it stays on the heat, it will continue to thicken.
• Adjust salt and pepper as needed and serve warm with a nice crusty sourdough bread and fresh parsley if desired.

• Mix the cornstarch with cool water. Add to the soup and stir frequently for 1 - 2 minutes until soup slightly thickens. If the soup is too thin, add more cornstarch slurry as needed until desired consistency is reached.
• and stir in the parsley. Season with salt and pepper.
• Serve with homemade Artisan Bread or Naan to soak up the juices and swipe up every last bit of goodness!
• Serves 4 - 6
• Leftovers will keep in the refrigerator for 4 - 5 days, store covered. To keep longer, store in the freezer using freezer safe containers or baggies for up to 2 - 3 months.
