Why You’ll Love Cauliflower Soup
If you’re looking for a simple, comforting, easy, creamy (but not made-with-heaps-of-heavy-cream creamy) soup, I’ve got a winner for you! 🥇 This cauliflower soup tastes decadent—like it could have a pint of cream in it—but is really quite light at under 350 calories per bowl. The secret ingredient? Boursin cheese! My OG readers know that I love Boursin; it adds cream and tang and turns ordinary recipes into special and delicious meals. (Boursin, if you’re reading this, call me; I’m your number 1 fan! 😜) This dish is endlessly customizable, whether you’re looking to amp up the veggies, garnish a bowl elegantly for a dinner party, or secretly feed your child vegetables….Cauliflower Soup can do it all!
How to Prepare
🔥 Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) 🔪 Using a sharp knife, cut up the cauliflower into bite-sized pieces. 🌿 Next. add the cauliflower to a baking dish and place about 1/2-3/4 the block of shallot and chive Boursin cheese in the middle. 🧂Now, add in a pinch of salt (pepper is optional). Drizzle over a tiny amount of olive oil and pour in the bone broth through the side. ⏲️ Bake uncovered for 35 to 40 minutes. Ꙛ Now, take it out of the oven, mix it all together, and pour into a blender with 1/2-1 cup more hot broth. 🍜 Blend until creamy and serve with roasted cauliflower on top, parmesan cheese, croutons, or even bacon bits. The world is your oyster so have fun with it!

Meal Prep Tips
This Cauliflower Soup is a meal prep 🦸♀️ hero. Honestly, the prep is so minimal, and the bulk of the work happens in one baking dish. You can easily double or triple the recipe (depending on how large your baking dish is), and then portion out for future meals. For 🧊 freezing, be sure to first cool the soup down to room temperature. Then, you can ladle out your portions into freezer bags OR these large silicone ice cube trays. I like to place the bags flat on a baking sheet to freeze initially, that way they’re stackable and don’t take up too much freezer space.
Best Served With
Serve this Cauliflower Soup with whatever toppings you enjoy: bacon bits 🥓 , croutons, a drizzle of 🌶️ hot chili oil, roasted cauliflower, and/or a sprinkle of parm are delicious additions! Serve this soup with one of my crusty no-knead 🥖 breads. My No-Knead Peasant Bread or No-Knead Focaccia Bread would be a fantastic option to serve with the soup. A fresh side 🥗 salad is perfect with this soup. I love it with my Simple Green Salad or Lemon Parmesan Salad.
