This vegan mushroom and white bean soup by Natlicious Food is hearty, comforting, and full of flavor. Oyster mushrooms bring rich umami flavor, while white beans add creaminess and plant protein. Fresh dill and lemon give it a bright lift, and a swirl of tahini adds a silky finish.

The mushroom and white bean soup recipe uses simple ingredients but delivers depth thanks to garlic, white wine, and vegetable stock. A touch of nutritional yeast and chili flakes round out the flavor. Blending a portion of the soup creates a thick, smooth base while leaving some texture for balance.

It’s gluten-free, soy-free, and nut-free, making it a versatile option for different diets. If you want something cozy, this soup works well for lunch or dinner. Serve it with crusty bread and a drizzle of oil for a complete meal.

It’s quick to make, easy to customize, and filling without being heavy. A great one to keep in your weekly rotation.
