Simplicity: Soup

1.07.2018



On my journey to live a life of simplicity this year, I am on the hunt for recipes which offer simple preparation while it providing the greatest nourishment for my soul and my body. 

After three days down with "The Crud," (can I capitalize that? I feel like he's a very unwelcome guest), I hadn't eaten in days and knew I needed to put something in my body besides Tylenol PM and DayQuil. 

A sweet text from the hubby asking if he could get me anything while at the grocery store was my invitation... without delay, I googled simple soup recipes. I found a soup that required only two ingredients... cauliflower and bone broth. 

It can't be more simple than that!

Because I don't believe in a meal without butter. I threw some butter in there for good measure. 

This soup was incredible! Please know, this creamy bowl of heaven got me through some of the harshest days of fever, cough and body aches. It was easy to make, between coughing fits and rest breaks from standing up too long. Not to mention the health benefits of organic bone broth, (have you heard about this stuff? If not, google it right now. Don't worry, I'll wait right here.)

Here's the recipe:

Ingredients:
1 head of cauliflower, trimmed, cut into florets
1 1/2 cups of bone broth (organic, or pull some out of your freezer, because you know... you make your own. More on that to come.)
1 stick of butter (1/2 cup)
Salt and Pepper to taste

Instructions:
Fill a dutch oven or large pot, with water and place cauliflower inside. Make sure water covers all the cauliflower. 
Bring to a boil, then reduce heat. Cover and simmer around 15 minutes. Check florets with a fork to make sure they are tender.

Drain pot and move cauliflower to a food processor. Add bone broth and butter. Blend well. 
If you can't fit it all in the food processor at once, start with half the cauliflower and bone broth, then repeat. 

Sprinkle a little salt and pepper into the food processor and mix thoroughly. Keep salt and pepper handy, as you'll season to taste once you pour your bowl.

Voila! And... you're welcome.
