Roasted Leek, Onion and Cauliflower Soup & a Holiday Giveaway

Calories:
Author: Courtney ODell

Ingredients

  • 1 large head of cauliflower leaves and stems trimmed off
  • 1 large white onion
  • 3 large white leeks white part only
  • 2 generous tbsp olive oil walnut oil, butter or other fat of choice
  • 32 ounces vegetable chicken or beef stock
  • 1 cup heavy cream or coconut cream

Instructions

  • In a large pan (or CROCK-POT!! Save space, you can use it later), bring 4-5 cups water (enough to submerge cauliflower) to a boil and cook cauliflower until very soft.
  • While cauliflower is cooking, dice onions and leeks.
  • To roast onions and leeks:
  • Slice thin and toss in olive oil or other fat. Bake at 250 until soft and golden brown- about 45 minutes to an hour (depending on how well diced they are, your oven, etc).
  • To sautee/brown:
  • Add oil/fat into pan and on medium-low, sautee onions and leeks until soft and brown- about 15 minutes. You want this to go slowly!
  • Add cauliflower, onions and leeks into a large soup pot OR crockpot.
  • Add stock and simmer for 30 minutes on a stovetop, or 2 hours in a crockpot.
  • Using an immersion blender (or pour soup into regular blender), blend until completely smooth.
  • Slowly mix in cream, stirring as you add it.
  • Serve while hot! We like to garnish this with super thin radish slices and green onions, but you could also add cheese, basil, garlic bread... the options are endless!
  • This soup reheats extremely well and will last in the fridge for up to 4 days. You can also freeze it in large batches to reheat.
