This soup is all you need

Enjoy a heart-healthy, creamy mushroom soup that's silky soothing and packed with veggies and protein completely dair free and made with whole foods. Super feel good food for what ails you. A simple, chef crafted, expertly designed, and surprisingly affordable recipe and it fits into the Whole Food Plant-Based No Oil (WFPBNO) lifestyle.
Cream of Mushroom Soup that's second to none.
Ingredients:
1230ml (1 litre + 230ml) vegetable or ‘chicken’-flavored broth (low sodium optional)
500g brown mushrooms, roughly chopped
300g white button mushrooms, roughly chopped
1 large potato, cut into large chunks
200g cauliflower florets (about 1 ½ cups)
1 can white beans, drained and rinsed
1 large onion, roughly diced
2 celery stalks, roughly chopped
5 medium-sized garlic cloves, peeled
¾ tsp white peppercorns, ground
¾ tsp black peppercorns, ground
A pinch of smoked paprika
1 cup fresh parsley, chopped
1 tablespoon each fresh rosemary, thyme, and sage, chopped
Salt and pepper to taste
Optional: Nutritional yeast for garnish
Instructions:
Heat a large soup pot over medium-high heat. Dry sauté the onions and celery until they start to caramelize, about 3-5 minutes. If they stick, add a small splash of water or broth to loosen them.
Add the garlic and ground peppercorns. Stir for a minute until fragrant.
Mix in all mushrooms and cover the pot to allow them to sweat, which helps release moisture. After a few minutes, uncover and continue to sauté for another 8-10 minutes until the mushrooms are well caramelized.
Stir in the cauliflower, potato chunks, and white beans. Sauté everything together for an additional 3 minutes.
Pour in the broth and bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer until the vegetables are tender, about 15-20 minutes.
Using an immersion or stand blender, carefully blend the soup until silky smooth. If the soup is too thick, add a bit of plant-based milk to reach your desired consistency.
Stir in the chopped herbs. Season with salt and pepper to taste. If using, sprinkle in nutritional yeast for added flavor.
Let the soup simmer for a few more minutes to meld the flavors. If you’re not serving immediately, allow the soup to cool before storing it in the fridge or freezer.
When reheating, add a little plant-based milk if the soup has thickened.
Serve hot, garnished with sautéed mushrooms, additional herbs, and a sprinkle of nutritional yeast if desired.
Enjoy your homemade cream of mushroom soup with a rustic piece of bread or a crisp salad for a heartwarming meal.

My next husband is going to be a vegan chef. Yep. 😂

Same ❤😂

[@suicune2001]

I'm happy to be celebrating my third vegan Thanksgiving! Thanks for all the great recipes!

[@joanramler7831]

Congrats!!!

[@TheDahakon]

Totally here for any WFPB content, thank you. Look forward to trying it out.

[@peacefullyfe4008]

Didn't know that it was okay to remove the gills from portobello mushrooms. Thought that I would be removing nutrients. Did a little research and found out that the gills have a "high concentration of cellulose plant fibers". The nutrients are mainly in the cap. Thanks for this recipe. Mushroom soup is one of my favorite comfort soups.

[@DebzBee1967]

Was concerned about Princess Frankie until you mentioned about her being on a play date 😊❤ ... Oh ... The soup is amazing... I love the spice from the combination of peppers... I did a third of red .. black .. and white. 🎉

[@choosehope8729]

What was the purpose for removing the gills?

[@AlexanderPetersonml]

​@@choosehope8729usually to keep the dish more colorful, although this soup is earthy anyway so it could just be habit

[@AlexanderPetersonml]

Hey fiber is still good for you

[@AF-ke9by]

I have been adding mushrooms with the gills pretty much all my life. They don’t hold dirt, and more fiber is always welcome.

[@Dibdib35]

I never use oil to cook. What an amazing recipe can’t wait to try. Laughed at the ending 🤣🤣

[@MER7]

You seem to be as kind as your food - thank you for sharing yourself with the world.

Ok elizabeth😂this is what I get while cooking, things (food) are escaping from me 🤣wicked 😂🤣

[@renafielding945]

I am feeling dangerously free in the kitchen now that there’s you! I have struggled with the vegan fasting that orthodox Christians do half the year, mostly failing and feeling bad about it,but your ways are not a struggle. This is not ascetic. It’s luxury.

[@VerdantJedi]

Awesome Vegan Mushroom Soup!

[@podatus1098]

This is gorgeous in that deep earthy green gray way. Thank you!!

[@weirdunclebob]

So happy to see you sharing your knife skills. Too many YT cooks and even some chefs hold their knives like they're clubs and the food with straight fingers 😧 Also, this recipe sounds delish 😋🌱💚

Thank you so much for this recipe! Since I am now gluten and dairy free, I was looking for a replacement for cream of mushroom soup to replace the rare occasions I use canned C of M soup...greenbean casserole...always a request from my extended family for the holidays. Now I have one! I'll be freezing some in appropriate size containers. And I won't have to cut it with milk, either! I love Miss America, she and my Molly could be sisters 😊.

[@Miguelmartyres]

I got sick this week and made this recipe, it's just AMAZING! It did soo good to me. I added a lot of spinach in it as well =) Thanks for sharing this amazing recipe.

This is similar to what I make as the base of my green bean casserole. I also use it for stroganoff and Swedish meatballs where I just dump the plant based ikea ones in and serve over noodles or mashed potatoes

[@PDogB]

Yep, will try this as a gravy first - perfect timing for thanksgiving! Also, appreciate you showing the best ways to slice and hold the cooking utensils for those of us who are not professional cooks or chefs!! Looking forward to seeing the lovely Frankie again. Happy Holidays everyone.

This remind me of one of Cathy Fisher's recipes on Chef A J I cooked along with her, so goodshe made cornbread with that and I made it with her, now they'res a lot of mushroom added and it's not called colliflower soup,but I just bought cremini and button mushrooms and make this with you and delicious!

Hello. Many videos here on KZbin have been a godsend for my plant based journey, which actually just happened to happen. You have inspired me to rethink my cooking and even my future. I can’t begin to express how fortunate I am to have stumbled across your channel as well as your brothers. I immediately purchased The Wicked Healthy Cookbook. During COVID I taught myself to successfully grow oyster and lion’s mane mushrooms. I didn’t know what to do with them because the harvests were extremely bountiful. Thanks to you now I have options other than tinctures or drying them out. Of course eating them but there was no way to keep up even after giving many away to friends. Thank you. Peace and love.

[@KyleDreherThailand]

Love it. Great recipe, man. As always, thank you for your work.

Oh my goodness, thank you! Ive been vegan since 2010, but need to focus much heavier on whole foods, ideally with no/very little oil It's getting chilly here in Vermont, so im looking forward to making this! I have 2 pkg of Baby Bellas, but can get 1 white, and make it in the next couple days 😊😋

I love mushroom soup. It does look great. I gotta admit I would add a drizzle of olive oil or coconut cream. 😬
