    Incredibly easy, one-pot, dairy free mushroom soup that's ready in 20 minutes! This creamy soup also doubles as a sauce for other recipes!

    Mushroom soup is just one of those meals that I default to when I don't feel like making anything. A low effort soup is just what one needs when it's too cold to move around much.

    Plus, this recipe can double for the base in this vegan green bean casserole!

    🥘Ingredients

    ingredients for mushroom soup with text labels.

    Any mushrooms you can get in most stores will work for this recipe. I am using baby bella mushrooms for mine.

    You can use any plant milk you have available. I use canned full fat coconut milk.

    Not pictured cornstarch and water which are needed to thicken the soup. I forgot to add them to the photo -brain fart-

    Please see recipe card for exact quantities.

    🔪Instructions

    step one cutting mushrooms.

    Step One - Dice and slice the mushrooms.

    step two sauteing mushrooms.

    Step Two - Saute in some oil until soft and starting to darken.

    step three adding seasonings.

    Step Three - Add in all seasonings and mix around.

    step four adding coconut milk and corn starch slurry.

    Step Four - Add in the plant milk, and water, then allow to heat back up to boil. Then add in the cornstarch slurry, allow to thicken.

    final soup.

    All finished! Enjoy!

    👩🏻‍🍳Cook's Top Tip
    You can use different sources of sodium for this soup. I used soy sauce, but you can also use plain salt, a mild miso paste, MSG, mixtures with salt mixed in such as; garlic salt or other such mixtures.

    📖Variations

    You can certainly change this soup up into something just a little different if you're feeling it!

    • Spicy - Add red pepper flakes or cayenne pepper.
    • Add veggies - Dice up some carrots, celery and onions (commonly known as mire poix) and add it in!
    • Add other things! - Check out this mushroom soup with wild rice and soy curls!
    • Need Gluten-free? - Swap the soy sauce for tamari, coconut aminos, or any other sodium source.

    This recipe can also be used as a main to other recipes like a vegan beef stroganoff or a vegan tuna casserole!

    🍱Storage

    Refrigerator - store in an airtight container for up to 5 days.

    Freezer - Store in an airtight container or freezer bag for up to 3 months.

    Reheat - If frozen, thaw naturally in the refrigerator, then heat either in a pot on the stove or in the microwave in a safe dish.

    Notes

    • For Gluten-Free - Swap the soy sauce for coconut aminos or tamari. Or just use regular salt, miso paste, etc. Remember to add only to taste and that you can add but you can't take away. If doing just regular salt, try a pinch at a time. For miso paste, try a tablespoon at a time. make sure the miso paste is gluten-free as well.
    • You can use any plant milk. It does not have to be canned coconut milk. Another alternative is a vegan sour cream (add just a ½ cup and the rest water)
    • Storage - place in an airtight container for up to 5 days in the refrigerator, 3 months in the freezer. To reheat; thaw naturally from frozen in the fridge, then heat in a pot on the stove, or in the microwave in a safe dish.
