Ingredients

  • 1 whole Medium Head Cauliflower
  • 1/4 cups Butter
  • 1/2 whole Onion, Diced
  • 1 clove Garlic, Minced
  • 1 teaspoon Thyme
  • 3 Tablespoons Flour Or Gluten Free Flour Blend
  • 4 cups Chicken Broth
  • 8 ounces, weight Cheddar, Shredded
  • 3 ounces, weight Reduced Fat Cream Cheese
  • Salt And Pepper, to taste

Method

  • Cut cauliflower into florets and steam until tender. While cauliflower is cooking, melt butter in a large stock pot. Add onions and garlic and cook until softened. When cauliflower is cooked, puree 3/4 of the florets, saving some to add texture to the finished soup, if desired.
  • Add thyme and flour to onion mixture to create a roux. Let toast for a minute or two. Slowly add chicken broth, whisking to reduce lumps. Once chicken broth is incorporated, stir in cauliflower. Bring to a simmer and add cheddar and cream cheese. Stir until melted. Add salt and pepper to taste.
