Creamy Cauli Potato Soup

  • Prep Time: 10 minutes
  • Cook Time: 30 minutes
  • Total Time: 40 minutes
  • Yield: Almost 2 1/2 quarts of soup 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb. potatoes, peeled and chopped
  • 1 Tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 onion, peeled and chopped (about 1 cup)
  • 1 cup chopped celery
  • 2 – 3 cloves garlic
  • 1.5 lb. cauliflower, separated into florets
  • 4 cups chicken or vegetable broth
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 3 oz. Greek cream cheese (or Neufchatel), cold
  • 1/2 cup – 1 cup milk, cold
  • 2 green onions, snipped (with tops), plus extra for garnish
  • Red Robin Seasoning (or salt) & freshly ground pepper, to taste
  • A pinch of nutmeg
  • Optional: shredded sharp cheddar cheese, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Put the potatoes in a small mixing bowl, toss them in 1/2 Tablespoon of olive oil, cover and microwave on high for 5 – 7 minutes or until tender. Roughly mash the potatoes with a fork.
  2. Meanwhile, heat a soup pot over medium heat and add the rest of the olive oil, then the onion, celery and garlic. Saute until the onion is soft and translucent.
  3. Add the cauliflower, broth and bay leaf to the pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer, cover partially and let cook for about 15 minutes until the cauliflower is very tender.
  4. Let the soup cool a bit, then put in a blender with the cream cheese and milk. Blend until smooth.
  5. Pour the cauliflower puree back into the pot and stir in the potatoes and green onions. Season to taste with Red Robin Seasoning, freshly ground black pepper, and a pinch of nutmeg.
  6. Serve hot with additional green onions and, if desired, a bit of shredded sharp cheddar cheese, for garnish.
