Featured Recipe: Creamy Cauliflower Soup

A few weeks ago my family and I enjoyed this awesome meal at Sugarbacon in Downtown, McKinney. If you are local to DFW and haven’t eaten there yet, you should! Everything from the food, to the drinks, to the atmosphere is right on point.  That particular afternoon it was pretty chilly, so we warmed up with their soup of the day which was a yummy cauliflower soup. Celia and I left inspired to say the least, and this is our paleo re-creation of this unique dish.

  • 2 c cauliflower
  • 32 oz vegetable broth

  • 3 T small diced shallot
  • 3 T chopped Chives
  • ¼ c dried unsweetened cranberry
  • 2 T chopped pecans or walnuts
