                                Ingredients
- 2 lbs fresh cauliflower (roughly chopped)
 - 2 lbs sweet potato (peeled and cubed)
 - 1 quart vegetable broth
 - 1 large onion (roughly chopped)
 - 5 cloves garlic
 - 4 stalks of green onion (chopped)
 - 1 tsp dried thyme
 - 1 tsp paprika
 - 1/2-1 tsp red pepper flakes
 - ¼ tsp salt or to taste
 - 2 cups milk
 - 2 oz cream cheese
 
TASTY TOPPING OPTIONS:
- crumbled bacon
 - chopped green onions
 - freshly grated or shredded cheese
 - homemade croutons or garlic bread
 - crushed red pepper flakes for a kick
 - hot sauce for even more kick!
 - salt and pepper to taste
 
Instructions
- Set your 5 or 6 quart slow cooker to high and add cauliflower, sweet potato, veggie broth, onion, garlic, green onion, thyme, paprika, red pepper flakes, and salt.
 - NOTE: If the broth you're using is on the saltier side, feel free to skip the salt and simply add it in later, to taste. Same goes for the red pepper flakes - if you want a super mild soup you can always sneak some in later. I added a teaspoon of RPF to mine and it gave the soup a delightful little zing.
 - Cover and cook for 4-5 hours on high.
 - Once the veggies are fabulously tender, turn off the crock-pot and add your milk and cream cheese. Blend using an immersion blender [my favorite space-saving appliance ever!] and you're good to go!
 - Ladle soup into bowls and enjoy right away with a mountain of your favorite toppings, then store the remaining soup in your fridge or freezer. As written, the recipe will yield around 4 quarts of soup which equates to 16 eight-ounce cups or 8 hearty bowls. It tastes great the first day and even better the next!
 - This soup will keep for 4-5 days in the refrigerator and freeze marvelously for 2-3 months! Simply store the soup sans-toppings and add all your goodies upon reheating. Easy peasy!
 
Notes
- Recipe yields about 4 quarts of soup which will usually equate to 16 cups or 8 bowls.
