Ingredients

  • 1 head of cauliflower chopped into florets
  • 1 15 oz. can chickpeas (also known as garbanzo beans)
  • 5 garlic cloves peeled and left whole
  • 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil divided
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon paprika
  • 2 medium sweet potatoes peeled and cubed (a carrot peeler works great for peeling)
  • 32 oz vegetable broth
  • 1/2 cup Almond Breeze unsweetened vanilla almond milk
  • optional garnish: additional salt and pepper reserved roasted cauliflower/chickpea mix, red pepper flakes, cooked diced bacon, minced chives

Instructions

  • Heat oven to 400 degrees F. and prepare a large baking sheet with a Silpat mat, foil or cooking spray.
  • Toss cauliflower florets, chickpeas and garlic in a large bowl with 3 tablespoons olive oil, salt and paprika. Transfer mixture to a baking sheet and roast at 400 degrees F. for about 30 minutes, stirring halfway through cooking. Reserve 1/2-3/4 cup cauliflower/chickpea mixture for garnish (more chickpeas than cauliflower).
  • Meanwhile, heat remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in large pot over medium heat. Add cubed potato and cook for about 2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add vegetable broth and increase heat to boil. Reduce heat to simmer and simmer uncovered until potatoes are soft, about 20 minutes.
  • Remove pot from heat and add roasted cauliflower, chickpeas and almond milk; stir to combine.
  • Puree the soup until smooth using an immersion blender or transfer soup to food processor or blender (working in batches, as needed). All of this recipe fit in my Vitamix.
  • Return soup to pot and gently rewarm. Season to taste with salt and pepper. I used about 1 teaspoon more of salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper and 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes. Serve with desired garnish and enjoy.
