    • 3 Tbsp olive oil

    • 1 large onion, chopped

    • 1 ½ tsp kosher salt, divided

    • ~ 4 c mixed mushrooms, roughly chopped (See Notes)

    • ¼ tsp thyme

    • ¼ tsp sage

    • Black pepper

    • ~1½ c Three Trees Original Almond Milk

    • 2 tsp apple cider vinegar

  • Heat olive oil in a large saute pan over medium low heat. Add onions, ½ tsp of salt and cover. Saute for 10-15 minutes until the onions are translucent and soft. 

    Add mushrooms and the remaining 1 tsp salt. Cook for about 7 minutes until the mushrooms have released much of their moisture

    Add sage, thyme and a few grinds of black pepper. Stir and cook for 1 minute.

    Remove from the heat and add the milk and apple cider vinegar. Transfer to a high powered blender to process until smooth. If you prefer a chunkier texture, use an immersion blender. Taste and adjust seasonings. Depending on your thickness preference, you may wish to add more milk.

    Yield: ~ 3c

    NOTES
    Ideal mushrooms to use include king trumpet, shiitake, crimini and/or portobello.
