Sweet Potato & Roasted Cauliflower Soup

Cauliflower is one of my most favourite veggies and when you turn it into a soup with one of my other most favourite veggies... sooooo good!!!!
My husband suggested adding bacon, hissss!!!!
  • 1 large head of cauliflower
  • 3 medium sized sweet potatoes, peeled and chopped into 1" pieces
  • 1/2 a sweet onion, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 7 cups water
  • olive oil for drizzling
  • garam masala, to taste
  • salt & pepper, to taste
  • chopped chives (optional for garnish)
Preheat oven to 400˚F.
Cut up cauliflower into bite size pieces and place on a shallow baking pan. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with desired amount of garam masala.
Place in the oven and roast until golden brown and tender, not mushy! About 25 mins.
Remove from oven and let cool.
In a large soup pot, bring sweet potatoes, onion, garlic, and water to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until sweet potatoes are tender.
Add in half the roasted cauliflower and let cool.
Blend in a blender until smooth. You will need to do this in 2 parts.
Add salt & pepper. Garnish with chives or parsley.
