10-Minute Detox Soup
Ingredients:
1 onion, sweet, chopped
4 cloves garlic, chopped
1 head cauliflower, chopped 2 inch pieces – stems included
In a large soup pot, sauté onion and garlic gently in olive oil until softened and fragrant
Add curry powder and miso paste and stir to coat onions
Add cauliflower, squash, cashews and water
Bring to a boil then reduce heat and simmer until cauliflower is soft – about 15-20 minutes, adding water if necessary to keep cauliflower covered
Remove from heat and let stand until cool enough to purée
Purée soup in batches in blender – be sure cover of blender is on tight as steam from soup could pop lid (we like to cover with a towel just to be sure!)
Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper
Ladle soup into bowls and drizzle with olive oil if desired just before serving
Notes:
chickpea or rice miso will work well too
frozen butternut squash works well
add more or less water dependent on the size of the cauliflower
use leftover roasted vegetables in place of raw
