- 40 mins to make
- Serves 4
A low-fat soup that's suitable (with a few modifications) for vegetarians or vegans. I made it to "compensate" for the big chocolate brownie with lots of frosting that I ate earlier today... :-O Recipe source: About.com Vegetarian Food
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp butter shopping list
- 2 cloves garlic, minced shopping list
- 1 onion, diced shopping list
- 1 potato, diced shopping list
- 1 head cauliflower, chopped shopping list
- 3 cups vegetable broth shopping list
- ~~~(I used one can of chicken broth and then enough water to cover the vegetables)~~~ shopping list
- 2 bay leaves shopping list
- salt and pepper to taste shopping list
- dash nutmeg shopping list
- grated cheese (optional) shopping list
- green onions, chopped (optional) shopping list
How to make it
- In a large soup or stock pot, sautee the onion and garlic in the butter for 3 to 5 minutes, or until onions are soft.
- Add the potato and cauliflower and cook for a few more minutes, stirring frequently.
- Add the vegetable broth and bay leaves and bring to a simmer. Cover and allow to cook for 25 - 30 minutes.
- Remove the bay leaves, then transfer soup to a blender and puree. (I just mash with a potato masher to leave some texture.) Season with salt, pepper and nutmeg. Top with grated cheese and green onions, if desired.
