Cauliflower Leek Soup

This is a very hearty, rich soup to warm those cold winter days. We garnished ours with toasted squash seeds, but you could also garnish with some roasted cauliflower florets, browned leek slices, or some sour cream and herbs.

 

 

Cauliflower Leek Soup

Ingredients: 

  • 1 head of cauliflower, cut into florets
  • 3 tbsp olive oil, divided
  • 4 leeks, sliced (white and light green parts only)
  • 1 whole head of garlic, intact but top sliced off
  • 3 c. chicken broth
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt, plus more to taste
  • 1 c. heavy cream

  4. Wrap the garlic head in foil and add 1 tbsp olive oil to the top before closing the foil.
  5. Place leeks, cauliflower and garlic in the oven to roast.
  6. Remove the leeks and cauliflower when starting to brown (about 15 minutes for the garlic and 30 for the cauliflower).
  7. Leave the garlic until roasted and soft, about 40 minutes.
  8. Transfer the cauliflower and leeks to a blender.
  9. Squeeze roasted garlic cloves from their pods in the head into the blender.
