Diabetic-friendly Roasted Cauliflower Soup

Ingredients

  • 1 head of cauliflower, cut into florets
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 4 cups vegetable broth
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream (or coconut cream for a dairy-free option)
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Olive oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Place the cauliflower florets on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Roast in the oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the cauliflower is golden brown.
  3. In a large pot, heat a little olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, and cook until softened.
  4. Add the roasted cauliflower to the pot, along with the vegetable broth and dried thyme. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes.
  5. Use an immersion blender to blend the soup until smooth. Alternatively, transfer the soup to a blender in batches and blend until smooth.
  6. Stir in the heavy cream and season with salt and pepper to taste.
  7. Serve the soup hot, garnished with a drizzle of cream and a sprinkle of fresh thyme if desired.
