Ingredients
- 1 sweet onion finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large head of cauliflower cut into florets, about 6 cups
- 3 cloves garlic large, crushed
- 2 tablespoons butter or vegan "butter" sticks
- 6 cups broth chicken or vegetable, regular sodium*
- ½ cup cashews raw
- 1 teaspoon salt to taste
- ⅛-¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
- ⅛ teaspoon paprika
- ¾ teaspoon dried sage
- ¼ cup Parmesan Cheese grated, or dairy-free Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Saute onion and olive oil in a Dutch oven or large pot for 5 minutes over medium heat.
- Add cauliflower and continue sautéing for 5 more minutes. Add crushed garlic and sauté for 1 minute, or until fragrant.
- Add in broth (or water and Better than Bouillon), butter, cashews, red pepper flakes, salt, paprika, and sage. Bring pot to a boil. Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-high heat, while maintaining a rolling boil, for 20 minutes.
- Turn off heat and add Parmesan or Parmesan cheese alternative. Blend ingredients in a high speed blender or food processor in batches or puree in pot with an immersion blender.
- Serve cauliflower soup with fresh parsley, additional parmesan cheese, and some toasted baguettes or Parmesan cheese whisps. Enjoy!
Notes
- Broth: My personal preference instead of chicken or vegetable broth in this recipe is to use 6 cups water + 1 1/2 tablespoons Better than Bouillon (Chicken Base) or Vegetarian base.
- Storage: Bring it completely to room temperature then seal in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 4 days.
- Freezing: Place in freezer-safe plastic containers and bring to refrigerator temperature first before freezing for up to 3 months.
