Creamy Tomato and Cauliflower Soup
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1/2 sweet onion chopped
- 2 tsp chopped garlic
- 1/2 of a large head of cauliflower chopped into small pieces(I had roughly 4 cups)
- 32 oz chicken stock
- 2 cans of diced tomatoes(14 oz)
- 1/3 cup basil, chopped or torn into small pieces
- 1 cup plain greek yogurt
- 1 tbsp olive oil, extra virgin
- 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
- 1 sea salt and fresh cracked pepper to taste
- 1/2 cup good quality shaved or grated parmesan cheese
- 1 croutons
- Melt butter in a large pot and add onion and garlic.
- Sauteed for about 5 minutes until onion in soft and semi translucent.
- Next add cauliflower and toss with onions.
- Cook for about 5 minutes.
- Pour in the chicken stock and fit the pot with a lid.
- Simmer over medium heat for 20 minutes.
- The cauliflower should be softened.
- Add tomatoes with their juice and cook another 10 minutes.
- Turn down the heat to low and add all remaining ingredients except croutons and Parmesan for topping.
- Heat for another 5 minutes stirring to blend all ingredients.
- Using an emulsion blender(or a regular blender in batches) cream all ingredients so you have a silky, creamy soup without any chunks of cauliflower.
- Garnish with croutons and Parmesan.
- Enjoy!
