Creamy Wild Rice & Mushroom Soup
As I move through my third trimester, my body craves meals that feel like a warm hug—nourishing, grounding, and packed with immune-boosting goodness.
This Wild Rice and Mushroom Soup has been a staple in my kitchen for a few years now, and it’s been fueling me (and baby!) during this incredible time of growth and change.
With earthy mushrooms, hearty wild rice, vibrant veggies, and creamy coconut milk, it’s not just delicious—it’s a bowl full of nourishment. Wild rice provides fiber and protein for sustained energy, mushrooms are rich in immune-supporting properties, and the coconut milk adds healthy fats for that extra bit of creaminess without dairy. Topped off with a squeeze of fresh lemon zest and parsley, this soup feels luxurious yet so simple to make..
Why I love this soup.
- Rich in Immune-Boosting Nutrients: The mushrooms in this soup are packed with beta-glucans, which support immune function by enhancing the activity of white blood cells. Garlic adds another layer of immune defense with its antimicrobial and antiviral properties, making this soup perfect for warding off seasonal colds and flu.
- Gut-Healing and Anti-Inflammatory: The coconut milk in the soup provides healthy fats that are soothing to the digestive system and help reduce inflammation. Paired with mineral-rich broth and fiber from vegetables like celery and green beans, this soup nourishes and supports a healthy gut microbiome..
- Supports Energy and Hormonal Balance: Wild rice is a great source of complex carbohydrates, B vitamins, and magnesium, which provide sustained energy and support adrenal health. The inclusion of thyme and rosemary adds phytonutrients that help balance hormones, digestion, and promote overall vitality.
