Superfood Keto Soup

This Keto/Paleo diet style soup is low in carb and high in micronutrients. Combines supergreens that are rich in antioxidants and vitamins.

 1 medium head cauliflower (400g/14.1 oz)
 1 medium white onion (110g/3.9oz)
 2 garlic cloves
 1 bay leaf, crumbled
 150 g watercress (5.3oz)
 200 g fresh spinach (7.1oz) or frozen spinach (220g/7.8oz)
 1 vegetable stock or bone broth or chicken stock - you can make your own (4 cups/1 quart)
 1 cup cream or coconut milk (240ml/8 fl oz) + 6 tbsp for garnish
 0.25 cup ghee or coconut oil - you can make your own ghee (55g/1.9oz)
 1 tsp salt or to taste (I like pink Himalayan rock salt)
 Freshly ground black pepper
 Optional: fresh herbs such as parsley or chives for garnish

1

Peel and finely dice the onion and garlic. Place in a soup pot or a Dutch oven greased with ghee and cook over a medium-high heat until slightly browned. Wash the spinach and watercress and set aside.

2

Cut the cauliflower into small florets and place in the pot with browned onion. Add crumbled bay leaf. Cook for about 5 minutes and mix frequently.

3

Add the spinach and watercress and cook until wilted for just about 2-3 minutes.

4

Pour in the vegetable stock and bring to a boil. Cook until the cauliflower is crisp-tender and pour in the cream (or coconut milk).

5

Season with salt and pepper. Take off the heat and using a hand blender, pulse until smooth and creamy.

6

Serve immediately or chill and keep refrigerated for up to 5 days. Freeze for longer.

7

Just before serving, drizzle some cream on top. Enjoy! :-)
