Recipe type: Soup
Serves: 3-4
Ingredients
  • 1 lg shallot, chopped
  • 8 oz. white mushrooms, sliced or chopped
  • ½ tsp. paprika
  • 1 tsp. fresh thyme leaves
  • ½ cup cashews, soaked in warm water 30+ min.
  • 1½ cup vegetable broth (plus more for thinning soup, if desired)
  • ¼ tsp. salt
  • Black pepper to taste
  • Optional: 4 oz. sliced mushrooms (any kind)
Instructions
  1. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, sauté shallot in ¼ inch water until translucent. Add white mushrooms and cook, stirring, about 3 mins.
  2. Stir in the paprika, thyme, cashews, broth, salt, and pepper. Allow to heat up until it starts to boil, then transfer (carefully!) to a blender and blend until smooth. Add more broth or water if you prefer a thinner soup.
  3. Serve soup as-is, OR sauté more mushrooms as above until soft and add them to your soup for a heartier meal. Garnish with fresh thyme and paprika.
Notes
This soup reheats very well. Store in a glass container in the fridge up to one week.
