Impossibly Good Creamy Cauliflower and Kale 🥬 Soup 🍲 

This is a relatively easy recipe with not too many ingredients. Perfect to simmer up on a cold day and enjoy all week. (If you have any left!)

What are the main ingredients?

Roasted Cauliflower 

Vegetable (or chicken stock)-I like low sodium

Fresh Kale (about 5 cups)

4 Impossible Sausages (or similar brand)

1 small onion + 2 garlic cloves

1 C of cream or half and half

Roasting the cauliflower first really brings out the flavor and is an important step in the soup.

Protein substitutes 

No worries if you are not into vegan proteins. You can easily sub out the impossible burger sausages for chicken or port sausages. Rotisserie chicken would also work well. Additionally, ground turkey or beef could be subbed.

Other substitutes 

Don’t like kale? Fresh (not frozen) spinach works. The half and half or cream can be replaces with a can of coconut milk and will not alter the taste.

How do I make this Impossibly Good Creamy

Cauliflower and Kale Soup

First, preheat your oven to 400 degrees and roast your cauliflower for about 20 minutes until soft. Coat it with some olive oil, salt and pepper before roasting.

Meanwhile, in a large stock pot, sauté your impossible burger sausages (or meat of choice) until browned. Remove from pot and set aside. Sauté your onions & garlic and pour in your stock. Add in the roasted cauliflower and bring to a bowl. Reduce to a simmer for 15 min.

Using an immersion blender or traditional blender purée the soup until smooth. Add back into the stock pot with your sausages. Fold in your kale. Slowly, mix in your cream. Season with salt, pepper and garlic.

That’s it! Ready to enjoy as a main meal or a side. Let me know what you think!
