Roasted Mushroom and White Bean Soup is perfect for a winter's meal. And it's ready in less than an hour.
Roasted Mushroom and White Bean Soup is simple and super good.
Roasted Mushroom & White Bean Soup is a hearty soup with excellent flavor.
A few years ago colleague at work had some surgery and needed meals brought to him. His friend set him up on Take Them A Meal. Have you heard of this service? It's terrific. If you need meals delivered, you can set up a schedule, indicate meal preferences and ask friends to sign up to bring you a meal.
My colleague was restricted to eating "soft" foods, was vegan and diabetic. That's a challenge, huh? Nope. Not for me. I volunteered to bring him some soup and found a recipe for Roasted Mushroom and Bean Soup on She Wears Many Hats, a blog by Amy Johnson. It sounded amazing, and it is. Because my friend needed soft food, I pureéd it in my food processor, which made it a creamy soup. I personally like it better without pureéing all the soup. I only smoosh up one can of beans and a few mushrooms. That makes it a little creamy and you still get the texture of the whole beans and whole mushrooms. Either way, it's delicious!
The soup is tasty pureéd, too!
Of course, I also adjusted the recipe to suit my desire to create a dairy-free, gluten-free, vegan version using ingredients I had on hand. And it is now one of my favorite soups. Recently, I used half white button mushrooms and half baby portobella mushrooms. It was really good. Use whatever mushrooms you want in this recipe.
What You Need
You will need a baking sheet, parchment paper, soup pot, and food processor. I used my mini food processor to process the beans, but if you want the whole thing to be creamy, you will need a full-size food processor, blender or immersion blender. Whatever you buy, buy the best you can afford.
