Broccoli and Mushroom Soup Recipe – Easy Creamy Low Carb & Keto Diet Friendly Soup Recipes.
Broccoli and Mushroom Soup Recipe
Lately I’ve been enjoying a soup of some kind almost daily as my dinner. And, this creamy broccoli and mushroom soup recipe has been one of my favorites.
It’s thick, creamy and full of flavor. The cream and butter bring healthy fats to the soup and make it into a meal which keeps me full for the rest of the day.
How To Make Mushroom and Broccoli Soup
To make this simple soup, start by softening chopped onion and garlic in coconut oil or butter. Use as much as you like for flavor and depending on how many carbs you want to allocate to the soup.
Then, chop the mushrooms and broccoli and add them to the saucepan. It’s up to you if you want to have it 50/50 mushrooms and broccoli or have more of one or the other.
I prefer mine heavier on the mushrooms side and with a smaller portion of broccoli. So, my version is more of a creamy mushroom soup with a healthy dose of broccoli thrown in.
Cover the vegetables with liquid. You can use water, stock, coconut milk or almond milk for this. As there’s so much flavor from all of the vegetables I’ve just been using water only.
Allow the soup to bubble away until the vegetables are soft and the soup is easy to blend. That takes about 15-20 minutes.
Blend the soup with plenty of butter and cream, then serve and enjoy. The secret to a super creamy soup is just using more butter and cream than you intend to use!
Well at least that’s the advice I got from a local restaurant here in Ireland and since adding more cream and butter to soups than I would have added in the past my soups have been luxuriously creamy – just like in this creamy broccoli and mushroom soup recipe.
