gluten-free one-pot soup recipe no flour or heavy cream healthy and low in calories thick, creamy, luscious texture no added starch or thickening agent
Ingredients Required
Mushrooms: I use button mushrooms for making this soup. You can use fresh brown, cremini mushrooms, mini portobello mushrooms, or a combination of wild mushrooms. Onion & Garlic: These are the two key flavouring agents in this soup. I cannot imagine mushroom soup without tons of garlic. They are a match made in heaven. Olive Oil: Use olive oil to save some calories. One can use butter as well to saute the ingredients. Or a combination of olive oil and butter. Salt & Pepper to taste Thyme: A dash of fresh thyme make an ordinary mushroom soup into a gratifying bowl of creamy goodness. Highly recommended! Stock: A vegetable stock gives more flavour and depth to any soup than regular water. If stock is unavailable, use 1 stock cube or bouillon dissolved in water. Milk: Use full-fat milk instead of cream. It does not make soup heavy and gives the much-required creaminess.

My 2-Secret Tips
Instead of cream, we have used milk. You will be surprised that milk gives the same creaminess and texture to the soup as heavy cream.
And to make the mushroom soup thick without flour or starch, blend half of the mushrooms into a smooth puree and add them back to the soup.
These two pro tips will help you make a delicious healthy mushroom soup without flour, starch, or cream.
Serving Suggestion
When dishing up this mushroom soup, pile it high with your favourite toppings – roasted garlic, bread croutons, or a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. However, this soup is highly versatile, so feel free to top it up with the ingredients you love best, like shredded chicken, roasted mushrooms, bacon, or caramelized nuts. You can serve the mushroom soup with herb focaccia bread or any other artisanal bread of your choice for dinner. I love the crunch of the bread and the freshness of herbs with every spoonful of creamy mushroom soup.
