Cauliflower Pumpkin Soup on Recipe Renovator | Gluten-free, vegan/dairy-free options

This soup is a combination of happy leftovers… my roasted curried cauliflower, leftover canned pumpkin from pumpkin-spice waffles, homemade stock. It’s super easy and extremely flavorful.

At first I wasn’t sure the pumpkin would work, so I mixed a little bit of pumpkin with the soup that was still on the Vitamix tamper. Yum! In it went. Enjoy.

If you use plain roasted cauliflower you have on hand, then add the curry powder to taste. You can make this with full-fat coconut milk and vegetable stock for the dairy-free/vegan version. Paleo and nightshade-avoiding peeps can omit the potato, although the soup will not have quite as much body. Try adding 1 tbsp of ground white chia seeds to thicken it up.

Suitable for:
low-sodium, migraine, gluten-free, reduced-sugar, vegan, vegetarian diets (see recipe notes)
