Immunity Mushroom Soup Recipe



This is a great recipe that was originally a Hungarian Mushroom Soup. I have added additional antiviral mushrooms and taken out the dairy and gluten to make it a healthier version for those seeking to boost their immunity during cold/flu and coronavirus season.


Dairy can be phlegm forming so it is better to stay away from that during this season and allergy season. Gluten has been shown to increase inflammation and is correlated in autoimmune diseases like Hashimoto's Thyroiditis.




I typically use one package of organic baby bella mushrooms for consistency and then add shiitake and maitake mushrooms for health benefits.


Enjoy!
