As far as vegan soup recipes go…this one should be on your radar…

My vegan cauliflower soup recipe with roasted cauliflower, you will love it! it’s so creamy, super easy and tastes amazing!! It has a lovely hearty chowder consistency without the addition of potatoes and you’ll be hard pressed to believe it’s vegan!

You’ll be amazed that by just roasting the cauliflower, adding a few simple healthy whole food ingredients, carrots, celery, onions, spices, nutritional yeast and my secret flavour ingredient for vegetable stock- better than bouillon vegetable base!  You end up with a healthy comforting bowl of cauliflower soup with top notch flavour!!

There’s no coconut milk, plant milk or cashews, just partially blending the soup creates such an amazing texture none of the cream options are needed! 

Lovely for lunch or a lite dinner. Great family meal! Perfect cozy soup for fall, winter or anytime really! My daughter says she wants my potato leek soup next - ahh! wow one at a time sweetie ❤️ lol

How to make Roasted Vegan Cauliflower Soup:

(for full recipe instructions and ingredients see recipe card at end of post)

Preheat oven to 425° Line a large baking sheet with parchment.

Slice the head of cauliflower down the middle lengthwise and cut out the core. Pull off the florets and cut into slices. Add to the baking sheet. Drizzle over the oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Toss everything together (I use my hands) and spread evenly on the sheet pan.

Bake for 35 minutes tossing halfway through cooking. When cool enough to handle give it all a rough chop

When the cauliflower is almost finished baking start the soup: Set your soup pot or Dutch Oven over medium heat. Add the onions, carrots, celery and garlic, oil and pinch of salt and pepper. Saute for 5 minutes or so until veggies are softening. 

Now add the water, bouillon, nutritional yeast, salt, spices and roasted cauliflower (reserve lemon juice until the end of cooking) Bring to a boil on high heat. Cover reduce to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes or so until the veggies are tender. 

Remove 4 big ladles of soup (4-5 cups) and puree in blender. Pour back into soup. Season with salt and pepper, stir in the lemon juice. If soup is too thick add a splash or two of vegetable broth. Enjoy!

Serve with my no knead artisan bread for a tasty lunch or lite dinner!

    Hey! Definitely making this soup tonight regardless, but celery salt is really hard for me to find- will omitting it drastically take away from the good flavor? Substitution of celery salt seems super weird, but I really don’t know! 😀

      I'm sure it will still be tasty without celery salt, add in some chopped celery leaves along with chopped celery if you have them. Enjoy Lindsay!
