Ingredients
2 pounds sliced fresh mushrooms3 cloves garlic2 tsp herbes de provence5 cups carrot juice3 cups unsweetened Almond milk2 carrots, chopped2 onion, chopped1 cup frozen corn kernels1 cup celery, chopped2 leeks, chopped1/4 cup raw cashews1 tbsp fresh lemon juice1 TBSP fresh thyme1 TBSP fresh rosemary2.25 cups white beans2 oz spinach
Directions
Note: next time I make this I will use much less carrot juice so it will not be so sweet tasting.

Cook mushrroms in as little water as is needed.
In a large soup pot, bring carrot juice, 2.5 cups of milk, carrots, onion, corn, celery, leeks to a boil. Simmer until vegetables are tender.

In a blender, puree the cashews and .5 cup of milk. Add half the soup, lemon juice, thyme and rosemary. Blend until smooth and creamy (may have to do a couple of batches).

Return the pureed soup to the pot. Add the cooked beans, spinach, and sauteed mushrooms. Heat until spinach wilts.
