Preparation
Warm rice bran oil in the bottom of a soup kettle on your stove top.Add chopped onion and cook until translucent, stir often so as not to scorch the onions.
Add cauliflower chunks, broth, and water to the kettle and bring to a boil.
Reduce heat to simmer and cook until cauliflower is tender (approx. 15-20 minutes).
Remove kettle from burner and stir in spinach allowing it to wilt.
Puree the kettle contents with a hand blender until smooth and creamy.
If you prefer a chunky soup, blend only half portion, leaving the rest in chunks.
Add salt and pepper as desired (I like a pinch of sea salt and a generous mill grinding of pepper).
Serve with a garnish of fresh parsley or cilantro.
This makes an appetizing green-colored soup that is truly heart-healthy!
You may substitute rice bran oil with olive oil or unsalted butter. If you prefer exchange the vegetable broth with a low sodium beef or chicken broth.
