This creamy cauliflower soup is ready in about 35 minutes with just a handful of simple ingredients. Nutritional yeast gives it a savory, cheesy depth you'll want to make again and again.
For vegetarian cauliflower soup version - with dairy - also add the following:
50gbutter
4Tbspsour cream
Instructions
Boil the cauliflower for 20 minutes.
Add the garlic cloves and boil for 10 more minutes.
Drain all the water into a bowl and reserve it.
Using a blender, blend the cauliflower very well until you get a smooth puree. Add the nutritional yeast and season with salt and white pepper. For the vegetarian version, add the butter and sour cream at this step as well.
Pour back some of the reserved water and blend until smooth. Add more water if needed to reach the desired consistency.
Serve with your favorite toppings and a generous drizzle of olive oil.
Notes
For a vegan soup, skip the butter and sour cream; the nutritional yeast keeps it savory and cheesy. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheat gently, adding a splash of water to loosen.
