Slow Cooker Cauliflower Soup With Crispy Chickpeas

Step 1

Cook: Roughly chop cauliflower and onion. Add to slow cooker along with cashews and broth. Submerge the cauliflower and cashews under the broth as much as possible, then cover and cook until cauliflower is tender (high for 3 to 4 hours, low for 6 to 8).

Step 2

Blend: When cauliflower is tender, puree the mixture until smooth using either a handheld immersion blender or by carefully transferring to a countertop blender.

Step 3

Preheat oven to 400°F (204°C). Toss chickpeas with oil. Spread onto a baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes, or until crispy. While still hot, toss chickpeas with spices and salt. Serve warm over the soup.
