Time 55m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons coconut oil
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
3 leeks, cut into 1-inch pieces
4 cloves garlic, chopped
1 head white cauliflower, chopped
2 carrots, peeled and chopped
1 large potato, peeled and cut into cubes
1 (32 ounce) carton low-sodium vegetable broth
1 (15 ounce) can light coconut milk
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
¼ teaspoon ground allspice
¼ cup chopped fresh parsley, or as desired

Steps:

  • Melt coconut oil with olive oil in a large pot over medium-low heat. Cook and stir leeks and garlic in hot oil mixture until leeks are translucent, about 5 minutes.
  • Stir cauliflower, carrots, and potato into leek mixture; cook and stir until the vegetables are tender, 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Pour vegetable broth into the pot, bring to a simmer, and cover the pot. Reduce heat to low and simmer broth until vegetables are completely tender, 10 to 20 minutes.
  • Pour broth mixture into a blender no more than half full. Cover and hold lid down; pulse a few times before leaving on to blend. Puree in batches until smooth.
  • Return puree to pot and place over low heat. Stir coconut milk, black pepper, nutmeg, and allspice into the puree. Ladle into bowls and garnish with parsley.
