Ingredients
-
1 bag Cauliflower (frozen, about 3-4 c)
-
3 tbsp Coconut oil (melted)
-
Sea salt (to taste)
-
4 c Leeks (thinly sliced (white portion only))
-
3 tbsp garlic (minced)
-
3 c Mushrooms
-
1 tsp Thyme (dried, plus more for garnish)
-
3 1/4 c Bone broth*
-
2 c Coconut milk
-
2 c Cooked (shredded chicken)
-
Pepper (to taste)
Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 400.
-
Lay cauliflower florets flat on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil or parchment paper. Drizzle 1 tbsp coconut oil over the cauliflower and sprinkle with sea salt.
-
Roast for 20-25 minutes, turning halfway through.
-
While the cauliflower is roasting, melt 2 tbsp coconut oil in a large soup pot.
-
Add in garlic and sliced leeks. Sauté until translucent. If the leeks begin to burn, feel free to add 1/4 c of water.
-
Once the leeks are almost done, add thyme. Mix well.
-
Add bone broth, roasted cauliflower, and coconut milk. Bring to a light simmer.
-
Using either a regular blender or an immersion blender, blend several cups of the soup until it’s smooth or until it reaches your desired consistency. I like mine hearty so I don’t blend it all.
-
Now you can add the mushrooms and heat the soup through. Add salt and pepper to taste.
-
Serve hot with a light sprinkle of thyme on top.
