Green Bean Mushroom Soup

♥ So I've never made soup with Oyster Mushrooms. But it came out delicious! At least in my opinion :-) I can't wait to hear everyone's thoughts so share if you make this. This recipe makes about 2 servings.♥

Ingredients

▶ 3 handfuls of green beans with ends cut off
▶ About 1/4 lbs of Oyster Mushrooms chopped
▶ Salt & Pepper to taste
▶ 1 1/2 cups of Almond milk (I suggest original so the sweetness of the vanilla flavor doesn't overpower the intended flavors)
▶ A dash of thyme
▶ A dash of basil
▶ Optional: I added a dash of Caribbean spices.

Directions

▶ Add all ingredients to pan
▶ Cover and cook on low to medium heat for 20 minutes (stir occasionally)
▶ Add ingredients to blender and blend until smooth (I use the NutraBullet).
▶ Depending on your preference for consistency you can add about 1/4 cup of water to thin out the soup consistency.
▶ This would be a good soup to serve with grilled  "cheese"

Tomato Cucumber Soup
