Mushroom Noodle Soup
This mushroom noodle soup is one of those quiet, comforting meals I make when my body needs a reset and my brain needs a break. It started as a simple “what’s in the fridge” dinner and quickly became a go-to on nights when I want something nourishing but not heavy.

The mushrooms and fresh dill bring in antioxidants that help combat everyday stress on the body, while the veggies and rice vermicelli noodles add gentle fiber to support digestion and gut health. And the warm vegetable broth? It helps with hydration and electrolyte balance — especially on those days I realize coffee has been doing most of the heavy lifting.

Nothing fancy. Just a cozy, grounding soup that feels like taking care of yourself in the middle of real life.

Ingredients:
  • 1 Yellow Onion (medium, chopped)
  • 2 cups Mushrooms (sliced)
  • 4 cups Vegetable Broth (divided, plus more for cooking)
  • 1 1/2 tsps Tamari
  • Sea Salt & Black Pepper (to taste)
  • 4 ozs Rice Vermicelli Noodles (thick, dry)
  • 3 tbsps Fresh Dill (chopped, plus more for garnish)
  • 1 tbsp Paprika
Instructions:
  1. In a large non-stick pot, add the onions, mushrooms, and a splash of broth. Cook over medium heat for five to seven minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened. Add more broth as needed to prevent sticking. Season with salt and pepper.
  2. Add the remaining broth and tamari and bring to a boil. Add the noodles, dill, and paprika. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for five to eight minutes, or until noodles are cooked to your desired tenderness.
  3. Divide evenly into bowls. Garnish with additional dill and enjoy!

I am a bold, beautiful, sometimes timid, usually happy, essential oil, nutrition junkie. Although at 39 I feel as if I've had several careers over a lifetime (or at least sometimes when I look back at my resume that is what shines through). I've been a paralegal, an office manager, an administrative assistant, worked in commercial lending and have finally landed on nutrition.

My journey to nutrition started many years ago when my sister was diagnosed with celiac disease and food had to change for the family. From there, along my own health journey I’ve helped people not only figure out what to eat but how to do it so that it can work for them sustainably. For almost seven years I’ve been counseling people on their nutrition and weight loss journeys.

I am knowledgeable about what purpose food serves your body and I focus on finding sustainable options when it comes to food; this also led to my love of essential oils. I had the opportunity to attend a workshop where a registered dietitian spoke about using essential oils in her practice to help her patients. I was floored. I knew that #plantsheal but I didn't realize that others in the 'conventional' medical community thought that as well!! Learning that it was possible to incorporate these magical little bottles gave me a huge sense of hope.

As I learned more about these oils I was diagnosed with increased intestinal permeability or as many of us know it, leaky gut. Leaky gut has been around for quite awhile but many of us are just learning what this is or why this is even more common these days than ever before. Many issues can be related to leaky gut including autoimmune diseases. Receiving this diagnosis just led me down a path further to learn about nutrition and how to best serve my body and take care of myself.

Since birthing our sweet baby boy at home earlier this year I’ve been incredibly passionate about helping other women too who are pregnant and new mothers with their nutrition. Eating healthy for your pregnant body and your postpartum self is a game changer for both mother and baby.
