CREAM OF CAULIFLOWER SOUP II
I make lots of cream soups and this is a good 'basic' recipe. I originally made this in 1990 and always make some modifications - we like lots of garlic as reflected in this recipe!! I also add or substitute other vegetables, i.e., broccoli and spinach. I also use potatoes for thickening rather than cream to keep the fat down.

This flavorful lunch or dinner option takes less than a half hour, thanks to a few cups of steamed cauliflower (see our Meal Prep Steamed Vegetables recipe). An immersion blender eliminates the need to puree in batches, getting your meal on the table even faster.

Steps:
- Heat the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Once melted, add the garlic and cook until fragrant, 30 seconds. Add the peppers and onions and cook, stirring often, until totally softened, about 8 minutes. Stir in the coriander and cumin and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Add the cauliflower, milk, 3 cups water and 1 teaspoon salt and bring to a simmer. Simmer until the cauliflower is very soft, about 8 minutes. The milk might curdle or separate, but don't worry- it will smooth out once you puree it.
- Let cool slightly, then transfer to a blender and puree in batches until completely smooth. Alternatively, use an immersion blender to puree. Return the soup to the pot and adjust the thickness to the desired consistency with water and season to taste. Serve topped with sour cream and chips with hot sauce and limes on the side.

Tips
- Use fresh cauliflower: Fresh cauliflower will give your soup the best flavor. If you can't find fresh cauliflower, you can use frozen cauliflower, but be sure to thaw it completely before using it.
- Roast the cauliflower and walnuts: Roasting the cauliflower and walnuts will bring out their natural sweetness and flavor. To roast the cauliflower, toss it with olive oil, salt, and pepper, and roast it in a 425-degree Fahrenheit oven for 20-25 minutes, or until it is tender and slightly browned. To roast the walnuts, spread them on a baking sheet and roast them in a 350-degree Fahrenheit oven for 10-12 minutes, or until they are fragrant and lightly browned.
- Use a high-quality vegetable broth: The vegetable broth is the base of your soup, so it's important to use a high-quality broth. Look for a broth that is made with fresh vegetables and herbs, and avoid broths that are made with artificial flavors or preservatives.
- Don't overcook the soup: Overcooking the soup will make the cauliflower mushy and the walnuts will lose their crunch. Cook the soup just until the cauliflower is tender and the walnuts are heated through.
- Season the soup to taste: Season the soup with salt, pepper, and nutmeg to taste. You can also add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a little bit of heat.
Conclusion
Cream of walnut and cauliflower soup is a delicious and healthy soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is also a great way to use up leftover cauliflower and walnuts. This soup is sure to please everyone at your table.
