Roasted Cauliflower Soup


My brother-in-law makes a bunch of soups out of cauliflower and squash. We received this odd cauliflower-like vegetable from the farmers' market when my parents were here and didn't know what to do with it. So, we decided to roast it and make a soup with it. We added regular cauliflower to the roasting mix, then boil all of the vegetables together with vegetable broth, salt, and a bit of curry powder and pepper. Next, we blended it all together with an immersion blender. If you don't have an immersion blender, blend the soup in a regular blender, making sure the top has a vent to allow the steam to escape. Then, we sauteed portobella mushrooms to top the soup along with plain yogurt and scallions. I know this soup sounds too simple and delicious to be true, but you should give it a try.
