Winter is coming and we are making a lot of soups and stews lately. This recipe is so light and simple and although cauliflower is not one of our favorite veggies, we really enjoy this amazing soup. If you don't like cauliflower, add some powerful spice like curry and you won't notice the flavor.
I like to have my soups with some healthy carb like brown rice, millet, quinoa or sweet potatoes and also with some greens. I've been obsessed with kale, especially with a new super easy kale side recipe I really love. You just need to steam your kale and add some healthy fat like tahini or oil, garlic powder and tamari or soy sauce. It's the bomb!
Tips:
- Use any non refined oil you want.
- Add more or less liquid to make your soup more or less creamy.
- Feel free to add or substitute any veggie or ingredient.
- The nutritional yeast is optional, but it gives the soup a cheesy flavor. If you can't find it, use some brewer's yeast instead or even some beer.

Love it! I sliced some onion and mushrooms, sauteed them until they were crispy, folded in some vegan smoked gouda, then topped with the mushrooms, onions, croutons, smoked paprika and parsley. Delicious!

This was a solid cauliflower soup, but nothing as amazing as the reviews had me think going in. The nutritional yeast is essential in my opinion for flavor. Much better with added toppings.
Iosune Robles says
Thank you so much for your kind comment 🙂 Have a nice day!
Mary says
Wow! What a treat—-and transformation of the humble cauliflower! I added chili flake, adobo chili, carrot, celery and fresh rosemary. Thank you for this yummy recipe! Delicious surprise!

Thank you🙏 Loved the recipe. To thicken it up I added 3 potatoes and for a touch of exotic flavor a handful of fresh curry leaves. It made the soup incredibly hardy. Topped it with a few chives and a sprinkle of lemon juice. Yummm
