Creamy Curried Cauliflower Green Soup (dairy-free)

Jump to Recipe

This is what I made for dinner last night.  After going to the farmer’s market and getting our produce for the week, I looked at what was in season and made a soup.  Cauliflower, chard, and spinach.  I also bought a beautiful head of romanesco, sometimes called roman cauliflower.  But I guess it’s really considered a broccoli.  Either way, it’s lovely….

Reminds me of a Thai temple….

If you are lucky enough to find some romanesco locally, you can substitute half of the cauliflower florets for this amazing vegetable.

This super tasty, nutrient-dense soup is an excellent way to get more greens into your family.  Regular inclusion of greens in the diet has been found to prevent osteoporosis, iron-deficiency anemia, and vitamin-A deficiency; and believed to protect from cardiovascular diseases and colon and prostate cancers. Loaded with cauliflower, chard , and spinach, each serving provides you with tons of the anto-oxidant vitamin C, vitamin B’s, vitaminK, manganese, copper, iron, calcium, iron, and potassium.

I flavored this soup with a titch of curry.  And a bit of coconut milk at the end makes it a creamy.

Gently sauteing the spices brings out their flavors even more….

Once I’ve made the soup, I lightly puree it with an immersion hand blender.  If you don’t have one, you can puree 2 cups of the soup in a regular blender and then add it back in.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups cauliflower florets, chopped
  • 1 bunch chard, chopped
  • 3 cups baby spinach, chopped
  • 1 small onion
  • 4 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp curry powder
  • 4 cups homemade broth (chicken, beef, or veggie)
  • 2 cups filtered water
  • 1/2–1 cup coconut milk (homemade or canned (like this))
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 TBS ghee, butter, or coconut oil

Instructions

  1. In small skillet, saute onion in fat of choice until slightly brown and translucent
  2. Add minced garlic and saute on low heat for another minute
  3. Add curry powder into skillet and saute for about a minute, stirring to keep spices from burning (this brings out the flavor of the curry spices)
  4. Meanwhile, heat broth and cauliflower in medium soup pot and bring to simmer.
  5. Simmer , covered, for 10 minutes.
  6. Add chard and water. Simmer covered another 10 minutes
  7. Add spinach and simmer, covered, for another 5 minutes
  8. Turn off heat and stir in coconut milk and add sauteed onions, garlic, and spices
  9. Puree the soup just a tiny bit to make a creamier broth. (I use an emersion hand blender, but you can puree 2 cups of this soup in a regular blender and add back in to soup.)
  10. Salt and peper to taste
  11. Serve and ENJOY!!!

    This was amazing!! Made it because I happened to have chard, spinach, and cauliflower going bad in my fridge and wasn’t sure how it’d turn out or if it’s be too much greens. But man it was delicious! Really good flavor, and didn’t feel like too much greens at all. Plus it especially hit the spot because I’ve got a cold and it was perfect!!

💗 learning to regulate my nervous system has be 💗 learning to regulate my nervous system has been a BIG part of my healing journey • my nervous system was dysregulated from many years of chronic stress • learning to signal safety to my body and lowering cortisol levels has allowed my nervous system to settle 

💗 the body doesn’t differentiate stress • work stress, financial stress, emotional stress, toxic burden stress (mold, heavy metals, parasites, etc), lifestyle stress (poor eating, lack of exercise, poor sleep) ... it’s all the same • and it puts to body in a high cortisol state 

💗 healing and detoxification is a parasympathetic process • it cannot happen if the body is always timed ON 

💗 cortisol affects so many things in the body: 

- lowers metabolism (weight gain)
- affects thyroid function
- decreases sex hormones,  especially progesterone (fertility issues)
- affects digestion (gas, bloating, heartburn)
- decreases body’s ability to detoxify 

💗 the body doesn’t let go if it doesn’t feel safe • signaling safety on a regular basis to the nervous system helps the body let go of:

- traumas/emotions
- toxicities
- parasites
- excess toxic water weight (fat is a storage place for toxins)

💗 my favorite ways to regulate the nervous system: 

- slow down in every aspect of life 
- stop over-scheduling yourself 
- meditation 
- binaural beats 
- prioritizing good sleep 
- getting out in nature 
- breath work 
- snuggling (partners, kids, pets)
- getting enough calories and nutrient-dense foods 
- laughter 
- dancing 
- connections with people who light you up 
- staying well hydrated with minerals 
- addressing traumas/woundings
- regular movement (but don’t over-exercise)
