There’s just something about a warm bowl of creamy soup on a cold winter’s day. Unfortunately, many creamy-soup recipes are full of cream and cheese, or include condensed soups (thus, preservatives and sodium). But this one harnesses the natural creaminess of cauliflower and pairs it with savory rosemary, garlic and parsley for a decadent, creamy soup that has no dairy.
For an even richer flavor, substitute vegetable broth (or chicken if you’re not vegetarian) for all or some of the water. A splash of coconut milk or heavy cream at the end would make it even more decadent.
