Ingredients
  

Soup Ingredients
  • 8 oz chicken breast cooked
  • 2 1/2 cups cauliflower florets
  • 1 medium carrot chopped
  • 1 1/2 tbsp ginger grated
  • 1 small onion chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/2 tsp turmeric
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp dried mint
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • salt and more black pepper to taste

Equipment

  • Cooking Pot
  • Immersion Blender

Method
 

  1. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil, onion, garlic, turmeric, black pepper and saute for 2-3 minutes in a small cooking pot.
  2. Add the cauliflower and 2 cups of chicken broth (or water and some salt). Cover and cook at medium-high for around 7 minutes.
  3. Add the ginger, mint and carrot and cook for another 5 minutes or until all the carrot has softened. Then, blend the soup halfway using an immersion blender. This will make the soup thicken, but won't make it too creamy.
  4. Add in the chicken, salt and pepper if needed and about 1 more cup of broth (or water). Cook for 5-6 more minutes allowing the flavors to combine, add a tbsp of olive oil and serve.

Notes

This soup is easily adaptable; feel free to add your favorite vegetables or spices to customize it to your taste. It also freezes well for meal prep.
