Creamy Roasted Cauliflower
+ Leek Soup

Easy Creamy Roasted Cauliflower + Leek Soup with Fried Leeks
Sending you into this Fall weekend with an easy vegetarian soup – sure to warm your hearts and bellies!
 
You guys – I can’t get over how creamy this soup is…WITHOUT cream or any dairy, what’s so ever.
 
It’s a good one. The bone broth (or use vegetable broth to keep it vegetarian), along with the cauliflower, olive oil and leeks makes it perfect.
 
The fried leeks are an extra step but so worth it. I love the texture and color contrast – plus a little fried vegetables never hurts.
Dairy Free Easy Creamy Roasted Cauliflower and Leek Soup with Fried Leeks

The extra step is worth it.

Sometimes extra steps are worth it. These fried leeks add some texture to this creamy soup – garnish with some flake salt and enjoy.
 
Let’s fry some leeks.
 
  1. Heat a small skillet over high heat with 1/2 cup coconut oil in it.
  2. When the oil is hot but not burning or smoking, sprinkle in the leeks.
  3. Cook for 1 minute and then toss and turn.
  4. Cook for another 30 seconds or until they begin to brown.
  5. Remove from the pan to a paper towel and sprinkle with salt.
