Roasted Mushroom Parsnip Soup
Author Chez Us

Soup weather is here, meaning it’s time to get out of the cold and curl up with a big bowl (or two!). This creamy soup by Chez Us is rich, smooth, and believe it or not, doesn’t contain any dairy. It’s a great option for lunch or dinner.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound crimini mushrooms, cleaned and cut into quarters
  • 1 pound parsnips, peeled and cut into 1″ pieces
  • 3 tablespoons + 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • 1/3 cup leek, whites only, thinly sliced
  • 1 clove garlic, smashed 1 teaspoon dried thyme

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425.

  4. In a dutch oven heat 2 teaspoons of olive oil over medium low heat, then add the leeks. Stir and cook until soft, about 3 – 5 minutes.
  5. Add 1 of the cloves of garlic (the smashed one). Stir.

  11. In a small saucepan heat the 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium low heat. Add the shiitake mushrooms, stir and cook until lightly golden. This will take about 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic and season with salt and pepper.
