Roasted Tomato Cauliflower Soup
This is a hearty & satisfying soup, I like to serve it with provolone & pepper jack grilled cheese (try a little Dijon with the cheese for a flavor pop!) on sourdough or kalamata olive bread with an arugula, endive & radicchio salad on the side …recipes below! Dipping those grilled cheese sticks in this soup is so yummy!! It is definitely a favorite around my home for a rainy day or any time! 1/3 cup butter ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil 1 ½ cups chopped onions ¼ cup minced garlic 2 lbs riced cauliflower (frozen is ok) 4 28 oz cans fire roasted diced tomatoes 1/2 cup chicken broth paste (such as Better than Bouillon) ¼ cup vegetable broth paste (such as Better than Bouillon) 1 cup water (I use it to swish out the cans for the extra bits of tomato) 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes or more if you desire salt & black pepper to taste 4-6 sprigs of fresh thyme & rosemary tied together with string in a bouquet garni Melt butter &
