Creamy Kale Cauliflower Soup

There are always a few items left in the refrigerator that need to be used before I head out for my every two week food shopping spree. This week I found cauliflower, kale, and celery so I googled a "healthy" recipe with those ingredients and discovered a yummy soup. And it even called for the few lone carrots that were hovering at the bottom of my veggie bin. A yummy, healthy, and easy "pause" dish I will continue to serve even after pausing :-)

Ingredients
  

  • 1 onion chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic-pressed or minced
  • 1/2 cup carrots chopped
  • 1 head cauliflower-florets (frozen or fresh)
  • 1 cup celery chopped
  • 6 cups veggie broth
  • 3 cups kale- chopped (remove tough ribs)
  • 3/4 cup raw cashews- soak in hot water for 10 minutes
  • season to taste

Instructions
 

  • Saute chopped onion in water, broth or olive oil for about 5 minutes in a soup pot
  • Add garlic, celery, carrots, and saute for 5 minute.
  • Add cauliflower + veggie broth. Bring to boil. Cook for 15 minutes.
  • Add the drained cashews to blender and 1 cup of soup. Blend and add back to soup pot.
  • Add kale and cook for about 10 minutes until kale is tender. Blend the soup in batches and combine in pot. Season as you like.
