Prep Time: 15 mins Cook Time: 2 hrs Total Time: 2 hrs 15 mins

What You Need

• 1 lb . whole mushrooms (like brown, button, or cremini), stems trimmed

• 4 cloves garlic , finely chopped

• 2 Tbsp . finely chopped fresh thyme

• 1 bay leaf

• ½ cup low-sodium organic vegetable broth

• Sea salt (or Himalayan salt) and ground black pepper (to taste; optional)

• ¼ cup unsweetened almond milk

• 2 Tbsp . unsalted butter

• 2 Tbsp . chopped fresh parsley (for garnish; optional)

How To Make

1. Place mushrooms, garlic, thyme, and bay leaf in a 3-quart slow cooker.

2. Add broth. Season with salt and pepper if desired. Mix well; cover. Cook on high for 1 to 1½ hours (or on low for 3 to 3½ hours), or until tender.

3. Add almond milk and butter; cook for an additional 30 minutes.

4. Garnish with parsley if desired; serve immediately.

Tip:

You can substitute other woody herbs like rosemary, oregano, or lavender for the thyme. Woody herbs are better in the slow cooker than soft herbs and stand up to long cooking times.
