Soup Recipe

Recipe time!
I'm a tad overdue for some tasty dishes.

This one I sort of came up with on my own...

I had a head of cauliflower and wanted something

warm, earthy, and to just fill my tummy up with

this past cold & wet weekend.

I'm sure you could doctor it up with cream,

or butter, milk, any of the fats...

I kept it natural and simple.

It fills me up on a small bowl,

I can barely eat the rest of my meal!!

Cauliflower & Mushroom Soup

1 head of Cauliflower

1 bag of mixed fancy mushrooms{shitake, cremini, bellas}

 (I used frozen, you can use fresh)

1 carton of chicken broth (or vegetable)

1 large onion

3 garlic cloves

Good quality extra virgin olive oil

Parmesan cheese

In a large pot, heat EVOO on medium heat

I chopped the onion & sauteed it in the dutch oven until tender.

Add chopped garlic cloves.

Cut cauliflower into large chunks and add to pan.

Pour broth over

Let it simmer on medium-low 45 (+/-)minutes until soft

Using an immersion blender, puree all the veggies until smooth

Add sea salt/pepper to taste

I added a little Parm cheese for a flavor boost.

It was earthy and creamy...

A very thick soup!

You can add more liquid if you'd like,

I preferred it this way.

Eat some of this before your meal,

and you'll be full before you know it!

A little extra dose of vitamins from the veggies.

I'd like to add carrots & celery too.

I'm noticing you can add just about any vegetable,

chicken broth, and use the immersion blender and it's

pretty darn tasty! 

Enjoy!
