In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
Add the diced onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened and translucent.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the diced portabella mushrooms to the pot and cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they release their moisture and begin to brown.
Pour in the vegetable broth and bring the mixture to a gentle boil. Reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 10 minutes.
In a small bowl, whisk together the almond milk and cornstarch until smooth. Slowly stir this mixture into the soup.
Add the fresh thyme, salt, and black pepper. Simmer for an additional 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the soup thickens slightly.
Using an immersion blender, purée the soup until smooth, or leave some chunks of mushroom for texture if desired. Alternatively, carefully transfer the soup to a blender and blend in batches.
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.
