Simple Cauliflower and Parsnip Soup

November 12, 2015 By Hana 4 Comments

Simple Cauliflower and Parsnip Soup

November is one of those months where you just need lots of cozy comforting warm meals and this Simple Cauliflower and Parsnip Soup might just be one of those. I can say I’m not a huge fan of cauliflower and although I’ve been brought up eating lots of cauliflower as a child I don’t often cook it or have many fun recipes using it. But I do like it mixed with other veggies for more flavour or blended into a soup.

Soup is a simple and nourishing way to get the most of this plant and since it doesn’t have any greens it’s a winner with my son, which is always good:) In this recipe I’ve teamed up the cauliflower with some parsnips and thyme for extra flavour and fragrance. I use thyme quite a bit in cooking and it has become one of my most favourite herbs, it’s beautifully fragrant and it works great in this recipe. Hope you’ll enjoy this little bowl of goodness.

Serves: 4-6 servings

  • 2 garlic cloves, chopped
  • 2 celery sticks, chopped
  • 1tbsp fresh thyme
  • salt & pepper
  • olive oil
Instructions
  1. In a large pot sweat onions, garlic and celery with 1tbsp of olive oil for about 5 minutes.
  2. After 5 minutes add cauliflower florets, chopped parsnips, thyme and enough water to just about cover all the vegetables, about 1-1,5l (4-6 cups).
  3. Bring to a boil and simmer for about 10 minutes until soft.

  6. Serve with good drizzle of extra virgin olive oil.
  7. Enjoy!
Notes
If you prefer you can use vegetable stock or broth instead of the water.

Happy New Year beautiful! ✨ I’m feeling that Happy New Year beautiful! ✨

I’m feeling that this is the year we all need to ease into. Use this sacred pause we’re in until the 5th of January to really go within and listen deeply to what are you being called to birth this year. Forget creating goals from your ego. What are those whispers of your soul calling you to? Is it time to take the lead in your life? ✨

If this year is a continuation of 2020 we will need more conscious embodied leaders taking charge to create the change our planet needs. It’s us who create the future. ✨

Now that many of us are awake we need conscious women and men to walk together hand in hand! We’ve got this! 

✨🕊✨

Sending so much Love Hana xx

What dessert are you making this year? To be honest I’ve got my gingerbread cookies stored in fridge, the leftover chocolate cranberry orange cake in freezer so I’m quite sorted! But still pondering whether to make the gingerbread cheesecake. And just have written a new recipe for a lentil nut roast which I’m really looking forward to making on Christmas Day. 🎄

Chocolate Cranberry Orange Cake 🌱 @amoredimona Chocolate Cranberry Orange Cake 🌱 @amoredimona has challenged me to create vegan, grain-free and nut-free chocolate recipe and so I took on the challenge with this layer cake. And I have finally experienced with cassava and tigernut flours, something I’ve been wanting to do for ages. If you fancy some grain-free baking check out the recipe on the blog. 😉

Have a wonderful weekend beautiful! ✨

Sending much love Hxx 🕊
