Without many lectin-free soups on the market, I created this creamy vegan cauliflower soup that is free of harmful lectins and grains.
This recipe is completely vegan for clean eating, a guilt-free conscience and a filling soup for any cold winter day.
Creamy Vegan Cauliflower Soup
Servings 4
Ingredients
- 2 heads cauliflower chopped into small pieces
- 5-6 whole of garlic cloves (leave skins on)
- 16 ounces vegetable stock
- 2 whole yellow onion quartered
- 3 whole celery stalks cut into thirds
- 2-3 tbsp olive oil
- 1/2 can organic coconut cream
- 1 sprig fresh thyme
- 1-2 tbsp white truffle oil
- salt & pepper to taste to taste
- 1/4 cup pancetta *optional (this obviously makes it non-vegan, but it is a delicious touch!)
Instructions
- Line a baking sheet with tin foil and preheat your oven to 400 degrees. Distribute cauliflower evenly on the baking sheet, along with celery and onions. Drizzle with olive oil. Roll up your sleeves and hand toss the vegetables so they are evenly coated with oil. Sprinkle the mixture with salt and pepper.
- Once the oven is heated, place the baking in the oven and roast vegetables for 35-40 minutes, until vegetables are golden brown. Once roasted, carefully remove skins from garlic (it can be hot!).
- Drizzle a large stockpot with 1 T olive oil. Add roasted vegetables to vegetable stock (in batches, because of the size) in either your trusty Vitamix or food processor to pulverize.
- Once the mixture is at the creamy consistency you desire, pour into the stockpot. Turn the heat to medium to keep the soup warm.
- Optionally, pull out a skillet and brown pancetta with a small amount of olive oil.
- Pour soup into bowls and drizzle with truffle oil and sprinkle with fresh thyme leaves. Optionally add pancetta, salt, and pepper as additional garnish.
Do not be fooled! This lectin-free Creamy Vegan Cauliflower Soup recipe will fill you up. I was initially tempted to make a side salad with this dish, but it is so filling, we didn’t even need it.
