Whether served with a slice of crusty bread or paired with a fresh salad, it’s the ultimate cozy meal that’s both satisfying and delicious! 🧀🥣

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 medium cauliflower, cut into florets
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 cups vegetable broth (or chicken broth)
  • 2 cups milk (whole or 2%)
  • 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, grated
  • 1/2 cup cream (heavy or light)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 teaspoon mustard (optional, for added flavor)
  • Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Start by preparing the cauliflower. Wash and cut it into bite-sized florets. Set aside.
  2. Step 2: In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, sautéing until they become soft and fragrant (about 3-4 minutes).
  3. Step 3: Add the cauliflower florets to the pot and stir, allowing the vegetables to cook for another 5 minutes, ensuring the cauliflower begins to soften.
  4. Step 4: Pour in the vegetable (or chicken) broth, bringing the mixture to a simmer. Cover and cook for about 20-25 minutes, or until the cauliflower is tender and fully cooked.
  5. Step 5: Once the cauliflower is tender, use an immersion blender to puree the soup until smooth. If you don’t have an immersion blender, carefully transfer the soup to a regular blender and blend in batches.
  6. Step 6: Return the soup to the pot, and stir in the milk and cream. Simmer for a few more minutes to warm through. Then, add the grated cheddar cheese, stirring until it’s completely melted into the soup. Season with salt, pepper, and optional mustard for an extra flavor kick.
