Roasted Cauliflower and Chickpea Soup

Ingredients

Directions

For the Soup
  • 1 cauliflower head, cut into florets (about 4 cups total)
  • 1 (15 ounce) can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
  • 5 garlic cloves, peeled
  • 4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
  • 1 tsp. ground cumin
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/8 tsp. paprika
  • 2 medium Yukon gold potatoes, peeled and cubed (about 2 1/2 cups total)
  • 1/4 tsp. black pepper
  • 4 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/2 cup milk

For Garnish

  • Reserved roasted cauliflower mix
  • Red pepper flakes
  • Fresh thyme leaves
  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees. On a large rimmed baking sheet, toss the cauliflower florets, chickpeas and garlic cloves with 3 tablespoons of the olive oil and the cumin, salt and paprika. Roast in your pre-heated oven for 30 minutes, stirring once halfway through. Remove from your oven and set aside. Reserve about 1/2 cup for the garnish.
  2. Meanwhile, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the cubed potatoes and black pepper. Cook for about 2 minutes, stirring frequently. Add the vegetable broth and the water and increase the heat to bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, turn the heat down to maintain a simmer. Simmer, uncovered, until the potatoes are very soft, about 15-20 minutes. Remove the pot from the heat. Stir in the roasted cauliflower mix.
  3. Puree the soup using an immersion blender. Alternatively, you can use a food processor or blender, working in batches if necessary and being careful when transferring and blending hot liquids. Return the pureed soup to the stovetop and gently re-warm it. Stir in the milk. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  4. To serve, ladle the soup into bowls and top with the reserved roasted cauliflower mix, red pepper flakes, and fresh thyme leaves, if desired. Enjoy immediately.
  5. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in your refrigerator for 2-3 days.
