Creamy Vegetable Soup
This cauliflower and potato soup recipe is a comforting and creamy dish that's perfect for cooler days. With a blend of hearty vegetables and savory seasonings, this soup is easy to make and incredibly satisfying. Plus, it's a great way to sneak in some extra veggies into your diet!

Preparation time: 10 min


Cooking time: 30 min


Resting time: 40 min


Total time: N/A


Serves: 3

Ingredients:

- 2 cups water


- 2 garlic cloves, quartered


- 5 cups cauliflower, chopped into small florets


- 2 tablespoons olive oil


- 2 celery ribs, diced


- 4 cups chicken broth


- 2 carrots, diced


- 1 onion, diced


- Salt, to taste


- Pepper, to taste


- 3 potatoes, peeled and quartered


- Chopped chives, for garnish

Method:

- In a large pot over medium-high heat, heat olive oil and add the onions. There's no need to finely dice anything since everything will be pureed later.


- Add the carrots, celery, and garlic, and sauté for a few minutes. Season with salt and pepper, then stir again. Add the cauliflower florets and potatoes.


- Cover with enough chicken broth and water to just cover the vegetables. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low and partially cover with a lid. Let it cook for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the veggies are soft.


- Once the soup is done, use an immersion blender to blend until smooth. If you don't have an immersion blender, you can blend the soup in batches in a regular blender.


- If using a regular blender, pour the blended soup back into the pot and taste for seasoning, adding more salt and pepper if needed.

Notes:


For added creaminess, you can stir in a splash of heavy cream or coconut milk just before serving. This will give the soup a luxurious texture and a hint of richness.
