Creamy Cauliflower And Vegetable Soup!
I’ve made this yummy recipe plenty of times. I have no idea why I didn’t think of utilizing those veggies with this soup before. It uses carrots, celery, cauliflower, and other herbs and veggies that I typically have at home. With a simple toss up of these veggies and herbs, you can make a comfort soup that will please the whole family.
So, here is exactly what goes inside this yummy, warm soup:
Cauliflower. You’ll want to use a whole head here, cut up into bite sized pieces. Cauliflower is a very nutritious vegetable. Did you know it contains almost every single vitamin and mineral you need (in varying amounts)?
Carrots. Although they’re cooked until they’re softer, they add a wonderful texture to the soup.
Celery. I absolutely love adding celery to many of my soups and sauces. Celery is a low-calorie veggie that provides so many benefits. For example, celery aids in inflammation supports digestion and is a great source of antibiotics.
Broth. For this recipe, I’ve used chicken broth for more flavor. If you’d like to make this meal entirely vegetarian, feel free to swap for vegetable broth!
Onion. It’s the MVP of flavors.
Herbs And Spices. Add in dried thyme, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. These are all flavor enhancers.
Avocado Oil.
Cozy up to a warm, delicious bowl of creamy cauliflower and veggie soup. You’ll crave it again and again.
