I remember, as a kid, lovin’ me some good old-fashioned Campbell’s cream of mushroom soup from the can. It was my favorite. Fast forward many years and I still love it, but now I’m a raw vegan and try not to eat anything from a can… if I can help it.
This recipe satisfies my craving and is perfect for one of those cold nights when you just want to put on your sweatpants, get cozy, and enjoy some comfort food.
It can also be dressed up for guests and served with a beautiful vegetable salad and a glass of organic Pinot Grigio.
So, whatever the occasion, I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as I do.
Ingredients:
2-3 cups water
2 cups mushrooms (I used portobello and shitake)
1/2 cup yellow onion
1/2 cup cashews (soaked)
1/2 avocado
2 cloves garlic
1 tbsp thyme
1/2 tsp sea salt
Garnish with fresh ground black pepper, parsley, and any left over mushrooms
Directions: Blend all ingredients in a high-speed blender. Pour into a bowl, garnish and enjoy! Note: If you have a Vitamix, you can blend the soup for 2 minutes and it will slightly warm it. Yum!
You’re such an inspiration

Hi Rita,
Thank you so much for liking my page! I am not doing workshops at this time. I have a regular full-time job other than raw-food that doesn’t allow me the time for workshops.
I hope to do workshops in the future and hope you will be there. : )
xo,
Patty
Looks great. I’ve been looking for a vegan cream mushroom soup recipe to use for some recipes as I’m trying to transition my family to a plant based diet. I can use this raw for more concentrated nutrition or slightly cooked as a replacement for other recipes. BTW….I love the look of your new site. Keep up the great work my friend.
Thank you Morgana! I’m glad you can use this as a base recipe and I love that you are transitioning your family to a plant-based diet.
This looks delicious, healthy and easy – my favourite combo! My husband doesn’t like thyme though. Is there another ingredient that would work well instead?
