Ingredients

• 1 head (about 2 pounds) Cauliflower
• 1 medium Yellow onion
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 4 cups Low-sodium vegetable broth
• 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk (or other low-fat milk)
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground nutmeg (optional)
• 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Wash the cauliflower and break it into small florets. Set aside.

Step 2

Peel and dice the onion into small pieces. Mince the garlic cloves.

Step 3

In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 4

Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds, stirring frequently to prevent burning.

Step 5

Add the cauliflower florets to the pot along with the vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes, or until the cauliflower is very tender.

Step 6

Turn off the heat and use an immersion blender to puree the soup directly in the pot until smooth. Alternatively, carefully transfer the soup in batches to a countertop blender and puree until smooth.

Step 7

Return the pureed soup to the pot (if using a countertop blender) and stir in the almond milk. Heat the soup gently over low heat, being careful not to let it boil.

Step 8

Season the soup with salt, black pepper, and nutmeg (if using). Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed.

Step 9

Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired. Serve hot.
