Toasted Walnut and Mushroom Bisque

This bisque is filled with nutty flavors and warming tones.  Great served as an appetizer or as the main dish.  An easy and healthy meal option!

 

 

Ingredients:

2 lbs mushrooms (baby bella)

1-2 Tablespoons butter

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 medium yellow onion

3 cloves of garlic

1 can of coconut milk

1/2 cup walnuts, toasted

2.5 cups broth of choice

1.5 Tablespoons wheat flour

Thyme to taste (I used about 1 Tablespoons)

salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

1. Saute quartered mushrooms in a pot with 1 - 2 Tablespoons butter on high

2. Reduce heat to medium and add olive oil, quartered garlic and cut onion

3. Add flour and stir in noticing it thickening

4. Add broth, thyme, salt, pepper and stir

5. Add coconut milk

6. Pour into high speed blender. Blend for a short period of time for a thicker soup with a few chunks of walnuts or for a longer time if you'd like it t be smoother.

I chose to serve mine with toasted cheese bread (harvarti).  So delicious!  Hope you enjoy :)
