Meatless Mushroom Pho Soup sounds fancy and tastes amazing.  This Mushroom soup was part of my post brain surgery recovery meal plan because it’s detoxifying, anti-inflammatory and full of nutrients.  Meatless meals are a good way to reduce meat intake which helps reduce inflammation in the body and saves money on your grocery bills.  Here are few Meat Free Meals and Protein Alternative recipes for more meatless meal ideas.

Meatless Mushroom Pho Soup Recipe

“Portobello mushrooms are a great substitute for “meat” in many dishes. They are hearty, have a great texture and give off great flavour. This soup is nice and light and great anytime.  Just a few pantry staples, some fresh ginger and garlic and you can make this easy soup.”
