How To Make cauliflower and kale soup
-
Step 1In large saucepot, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Saute onion and garlic, until onions are translucent
-
Step 2Add cauliflower and vegetable stock. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer until cauliflower softens, approx. 15-20 min.
-
Step 3Add kale and simmer for another 5 minutes. NOTE: I like the mixture just as it is at this stage; has some substance, so I just mash a little with a hand masher and skip Step 4, but do add a little salt and pepper to taste. But if you like, you can continue with the following directions.
-
Step 4Let mixture cool completely. Then, transfer to a blender and puree until smooth. Return the soup to the saucepot and bring to simmer. Add tarragon, salt and pepper.

Step 5Remove from heat and serve with a favorite protein
