There’s something really satisfying about mushroom soup. It’s rich, earthy and creamy. There’s no dairy in this soup. It’s all about the mushrooms. If you like mushrooms, you’re going to love this soup.

The cashews add a nutty undertone that makes this soup pretty special. It’s a vegan, Keto and paleo friendly recipe. It’s also really delicious.
