Quick & Easy Mushroom Soup Recipe
A creamy, flavorful mushroom soup that's quick to make, perfect for a cozy lunch or light dinner.
Ingredients

- Pour in the vegetable broth, bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes.
- Stir in the heavy cream and simmer for another 2-3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
- Optional: Blend part of the soup for a creamy consistency or leave it chunky for texture.
- Serve hot, garnished with parsley if desired.
Notes
For a vegan version, use coconut milk or oat milk instead of cream and vegetable broth for a plant-based option.
