ingredients
- 1 cup diced yellow onion
- 2 stalks celery, sliced
- 3 carrots, sliced
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- Salt, to taste
- Black pepper, to taste
- 2 cups U.S.-grown wild rice
- 64 ounces vegetable broth, divided
- 2 cups mushrooms, any variety*, sliced *I used a combination of shiitake and crimini
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon thyme
- 1 cup milk, of choice
- 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese
Method
Step 1
Turn Instant Pot to sauté, then add the onion, celery, carrots, garlic, red pepper, salt, and pepper and sauté with 1-2 tablespoons olive oil for 2-3 minutes.
Step 2
Then, add rice and 32 ounces vegetable broth and pressure cook for 15 minutes.
Step 3
While the rice is cooking, cook the mushrooms: heat olive oil in a large skillet, then add the mushrooms and thyme and sauté until the mushrooms are crispy, about 5 minutes; set aside.
Step 4
Once the Instant Pot beeps, pressure release it and carefully open the lid. Stir in the milk, cheese, the rest of the broth and HALF of the mushrooms.
Step 5
Divide soup into bowls, then top it with the remaining mushrooms. Enjoy!
