Difficulty: Easy

Ingredients Add to grocery list

2 tablespoons canola oil
1 large onion, chopped
4 cloves garlic, finely chopped
Pinch red pepper flakes
½ medium head cauliflower, cut into florets
8 cups low sodium chicken broth
1 (12 ounce) bag baby spinach
Dash hot sauce
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Directions

Heat the oil until hot in a large soup pot or Dutch oven. Add the onion and sauté until translucent. Add the garlic and red pepper flakes and cook, while stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the cauliflower and the chicken broth and bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Simmer the cauliflower until tender, about 20 minutes. Once tender, stir in the baby spinach by large handfuls, waiting until the first batch has wilted down until you add the next. Season with hot sauce, salt, and pepper. Blend until velvety smooth in batches in a blender.

I dried all the leftover "greens" and etc from my garden, then processed them into powder. I think I'll add a spoonfull to your green soup for extra nutrition. Ymmm!
