There is nothing I enjoy better than having a creamy bowl of hot soup on a cold winters day! This soup is so delicious and sure to please everyone!
First, cut up your cauliflower into small pieces and set aside.
Next, cut a medium onion into small chunks or pieces.
Melt your grass fed butter in a stock pot over medium heat.
Add onions and sauté until soft and tender.
Add garlic to onions and simmer for 1 more additional minute. Add your homemade chicken stock to the stockpot.
Add cauliflower, thyme and simmer for 20 minutes or until cauliflower is soft and tender.
With a stick blender or food processor, puree soup until smooth and silky.
Soup will be creamy and smooth. In a small bowl add 1/4 cup half and half, cream or milk. Add a few tablespoons of hot soup to the cold cream a little at a time and gently warm the cream. Add the warm cream to the rest of the soup and stir.
Serve hot with a little thyme on top. Enjoy!

Wondering how coconut milk would work? Still on 2 week elimination of dairy.
It would work great Rhonda. You could so easily eliminate the cream/milk product and it still taste amazing. I would try that first and if you want it more creamy try adding your fresh coconut milk.
Thank you! I have a head of cauliflower in the fridge & chicken stock in the freezer : )
In South Texas you just have to turn the air down and eat soup anytime. Lol
Actually Melissa this soup is very good cold too 🙂
Occasionally
I bet that would be good with grated cheese on top, for those who eat dairy.
My oldest son and I LOVE soup but I can’t get my two little ones to touch it so we hardly ever make it. ):
I just tried this recipe and I am in love. This soup is awesome. My two girls absolutely loved it, they even made me “Thank you for the soup” cards after dinner.
@JeanetteContreras Oh how cute 🙂 I am so glad you and your girls liked it. Mine enjoyed it as well.
