Roasted Cauliflower Bacon Soup

This soup is loaded with cauliflower, which is what makes it so healthy and filling. It also contains bacon bits for more taste, but if you're a vegetarian, simply leave out the bacon - it will still taste exceptional!

Roasted Cauliflower Bacon Soup
Ingredients for soup:
Olive oil - 2 tbsp.
Salt - 1/2 tsp.
Ground black pepper - 1/2 tsp.
Bacon slices - 6 (sliced 1/2 inch thick)
Onion - 1/2 large (chopped)
Garlic - 2 cloves (minced)
Vegetable broth - 4 cups
Green onions - a handful (for topping)
Cheddar cheese - 1/3 cup (for topping)
Method of preparing the soup:
  1. Preheat oven to 430°F. Place the cauliflower florets on a baking sheet and drizzle with 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Add salt and pepper. Leave roasting for 45 minutes, and flip over halfway through.
  2. Place the sliced bacon in a large pot and sauté for 5-6 minutes, until it starts to crisp. When ready, drain the bacon bits by putting them on a paper towel, and leave at least 2 tablespoons of bacon grease in the pot.
  3. Add the chopped onion to the bacon grease and sauté it for around 4 minutes over medium heat. Add garlic and sauté for another 2 minutes. Add the veggie broth and bring to boil.
  4. Reduce heat to medium-low and add the cauliflower. Cover the pot and leave to simmer for 15 minutes.
  5. Using a blender, puree the soup until you achieve the desired consistency.
Chef's Tip:
Optional: Top with some more crispy bacon, sliced green onions, cheese, or sour cream.
