View Recipe 02 of 18 Slow-Cooker Mushroom Soup with Sherry This comforting and creamy slow-cooker soup is loaded with earthy, umami flavor from the mushrooms and soy sauce. Garnish with additional black pepper and chopped fresh thyme, if desired. View Recipe 03 of 18 Ania's Zupa Grzybowa (Ania's Mushroom Soup) Ali Redmond In Poland, foraged mushrooms, notably boletus, are prized for their flavor. Many families in Poland serve this vegetarian mushroom soup on Christmas Eve, but in Natalie Jesionka's family, it's served all winter long. There are many different recipes for this soup, depending on the ingredients that are accessible where the cook lives. The addition of white wine is a nod to Jesionka's great-grandmother, who made her own wine from grapes and added it to her soup. In Poland, this soup is served with square handmade noodles called lazanki, but you can serve it with small pasta like orzo, or with barley. View Recipe 04 of 18 Creamy Chicken & Mushroom Soup This creamy chicken and mushroom soup is easy to make. The mix of vegetables and thyme adds richness, while the bone-in chicken flavors the broth. If you're in a hurry, you can skip the chicken breasts and add rotisserie chicken at the end instead. View Recipe 05 of 18 20-Minute Creamy Mushroom Soup with Sherry Photographer: Robby Lozano, Food Stylist: Margaret Dickey, Prop Stylist: Julia Bayless This quick creamy mushroom soup is loaded with earthy wild mushrooms enhanced by the flavor of dry sherry. To keep prep to a minimum, look for sliced wild mushrooms in packages, or slice your own using whatever combination you prefer. View Recipe 06 of 18 Healthy Cream of Mushroom Soup This healthy version of the traditional cream of mushroom soup calls for you to puree half of the soup for that rich, creamy mouthfeel and leave the other half as-is for hits of meaty texture. Don't skip the parsley and tarragon as both add a nice pop of color and their flavors play so well with the mushrooms. Be sure to brown the mushrooms well as that'll add even more depth to the soup. View Recipe 07 of 18 Our Swedish Meatball Soup Is Inspired by IKEA’s Famous Meatballs Photographer: Jen Causey, Food Stylist: Emily Nabors Hall , Prop Stylist: Julia Bayless We use the flavor profile of Swedish meatballs, like the ones you find at your local IKEA store, as the inspiration for this savory soup. The creamy broth makes an ideal base for the soup. Refrigerating the meat mixture for at least 15 to 20 minutes before shaping the meatballs helps them keep their shape. Use a small ice cream or cookie scoop, if you have one, to portion the meatballs. View Recipe 08 of 18 Creamy Wild Rice & Mushroom Soup Mushrooms add earthiness and umami flavor in this creamy, one-pot soup recipe. This vegetarian soup will thicken as it sits, so be mindful that the consistency may change when you're done cooking. View Recipe 09 of 18 Cream of Mushroom & Barley Soup View Recipe 10 of 18 Immunity Soup This easy soup is full of immunity-supporting foods: vitamin C–rich kale, zinc-containing chicken and chickpeas and antioxidant-packed garlic. Plus, the hot, steamy broth and a hint of pepper heat get your nose running—great for flushing out sinuses and potentially staving off an infection. It's a big pot of brothy soup that you can make ahead and enjoy for a couple of days; the flavor just gets better over time. You may be wary of the large amount of garlic, but keep in mind that it mellows considerably after being cooked. Though we love using bone-in chicken breasts here, you can also swap in 3 cups shredded rotisserie chicken breast in a pinch (be aware that it will add more sodium)." View Recipe 11 of 18 Mushroom & Lentil Soup Photographer: Jennifer Causey, Food stylist: Ali Ramee, Prop stylist: Clairen Spollen Fresh and dried mushrooms provide a deep umami flavor in this brothy soup, while harissa paste brings color and spiciness. Lentils serve as a great source of plant-based protein and help bulk up the soup so you'll feel full and satisfied. View Recipe 12 of 18 Mushroom-Beef Noodle Soup You don't need much beef in this homey mushroom-beef noodle soup recipe, since mushrooms and a little Worcestershire sauce give it plenty of savory flavor. View Recipe 13 of 18 Vegan Cream of Mushroom Soup This creamy vegan mushroom soup is thickened with walnuts, which give the soup a creamy texture--no cream required! Add sautéed mushrooms and walnuts on top for garnish and a little crunch, and a scattering of fresh chives for even more flavor. View Recipe 14 of 18 Creamy Cremini Mushroom Soup Reduced-fat sour cream and low-fat milk make this soup creamy without all the fat. The pudgy brown mushrooms called cremini are generally firmer and richer-tasting than common white mushrooms. Nothing soothes, nourishes and comforts like homemade chicken broth. Canned broth is a handy when you need a quick soup, but homemade delivers maximum flavor. View Recipe 15 of 18 Creamy Mushroom & Orzo Soup with Lemon & Parmesan Diana Chistruga This creamy mushroom soup is filled with hearty orzo and plenty of veggies. The sherry, thyme and lemon boost and brighten the flavor, while sour cream thickens the broth and gives it extra tanginess. View Recipe 16 of 18 Chicken, Barley & Mushroom Soup This healthy chicken soup recipe is chock-full of sturdy root vegetables and whole-grain barley. You can use any combination of dried and fresh mushrooms here. The soup will thicken as it sits on the stove--thin it as needed with more broth or water. View Recipe 17 of 18 Wild Mushroom Soup Photographer / Victor Protasio, Food Stylist / Karen Rankin, Prop Stylist / Kay Clarke This creamless—but creamy—mushroom soup recipe showcases the savory flavor of fresh morel mushrooms. If you can't find fresh or dried morels, try other dried mushrooms, such as dried shitakes or creminis, but be sure to use at least one ounce dried mushrooms to keep the luscious flavor in this healthy soup. Serve with crusty garlic bread. View Recipe 18 of 18 Gluten-Free Cream of Mushroom Soup There's no cream in this silky mushroom soup. Pureed potatoes give this vegan mushroom soup its creamy texture. Be sure to use Yukon Gold—russets don't provide quite the right texture. View Recipe Was this page helpful? Thanks for your feedback! Tell us why! Other Submit
