A creamy and delicious kale and cauliflower soup that's perfect on a cold day but makes a nice, light meal any time of year. Completely plant-based and made in under 30 minutes with just 8 simple ingredients, this soup is sure to become a new go-to!

Kale and Cauliflower Soup

large white or yellow onion, diced (390 g)

garlic,

carrots (175 g, approx. 1.5 cups chopped)

parsley

thyme

vegetable stock

cauliflower

lightly packed, chopped, de-stemmed kale (120 g)

salt and pepper,

lemon juice

Saute the onions and garlic in 2 tbsp of broth or water in a large soup pot over medium heat until they start to soften and become fragrant, about 5 minutes.

Stir in the chopped carrots, dried parsley and ground thyme. Cook for few more minutes, adding another splash of stock if needed if the pan starts to dry out.

Stir in the vegetable broth and chopped cauliflower and bring to a light simmer. Simmer lightly, uncovered, until the cauliflower is tender, about 10-15 minutes.

Turn the heat off then carefully scoop about 1/2 of the soup into a blender, leaving some pieces of carrot and cauliflower behind. Blend until smooth and creamy (make sure you allow steam to escape when blending) and then pour the blended soup back into the pot and mix with the remaining soup.

Stir in the chopped kale. Let sit for 5-10 minutes before serving to allow kale to soften.

Serve right away with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice and sprinkle of chopped fresh parsley, if desired.

This soup is easy to make! So delicious! Thank you for sharing this.

Love this recipe. Quick, simple, and utterly delicious! I will definitely be making this again. I threw some turmeric in there too and just a dash extra of parsley and ground thyme. I also didn't have enough cauliflower so I threw the whole rest of the head in there, stem and leaves included, and just made sure to blend those pieces. It came out so well and made plenty to save.

This was delicious! I made it tonight and changed out the carrots for celery, added a can of black beans and 1 cup of turkey and it was wonderful! Will definitely make this again!

Very good soup that was easy to prepare. I am not vegan do so added some parmesan rinds while cooking. The soup was a little bland so next time I will add turmeric and cumin to the pot.

I made this tonight and it was love at first taste! My husband loved it too. This is for sure going in our regular rotation.

This is a very delicious recipe! I made it last night with the available ingredients that I had at home and it was fantastic! And easy to make. I am already looking forward to the next time I am eating it!

Love this soup so flavorful and easy to make.  Thank yo Deryn for sharing your delicious recipes.

Loved this recipe. I also recommend adding some nutritional yeast and little bit of smoked paprika. And if you enjoy spices then a little bit of cayenne pepper. I tried it today and it was delicious.

This is a great soup. Real comfort food. It is also quickly made and super healthy. I actually used my immersion blender on all of it and added some nutritional yeast. YUM!

I love your recipes! This was another winner. I added some nutritional yeast as suggested and it was great. Next time I make this, I’m going to add some white beans. It’s a keeper! 

Love It!!! Added ground turkey and it was a hit! Definitely on my weekly dinner calendar.. 

This was easy and fun to make. It tastes great! I needed to add some protein,  but only had black beans, so added them. This definitely altered the appearance and changed the taste, still good. I will keep this recipe! Thanks!
