Creamy Roasted Garlic & Kale Soup with Cauliflower
Ingredients
- 12 Garlic (cloves, peeled and trimmed)
- 1 Yellow Onion (large, roughly chopped)
- 1 head Cauliflower (sliced into florets)
- 3 tbsps Extra Virgin Olive Oil (divided)
- 1 ⅓ tbsps Italian Seasoning
- 1 tsp Sea Salt
- 8 cups Kale Leaves (packed)
- 3 ¾ cups Vegetable Broth (divided)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400ºF (204ºC) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Arrange the garlic cloves, onion and cauliflower on the baking sheet. Drizzle with half of the olive oil, Italian seasoning and salt. Using your hand or a spatula, toss until vegetables are evenly coated in the spices. Roast for about 40 minutes or until very tender and caramelized, flipping halfway through.
- When vegetables are just about done, heat remaining olive oil in a large soup pot over medium heat. Add the kale and 1/2 of the vegetable broth to the pot and cover. Let steam for 2 minutes, or until kale is wilted and tender.
- Add the roasted vegetables and remaining vegetable stock in with the wilted kale. Bring soup to a gentle boil then remove from heat.
- Puree soup in batches in a high-speed blender until smooth and creamy. Divide into bowls and enjoy!
