Sage & Sausage Cauliflower Soup

Posted on February 17, 2014March 10, 2016 by Raia

So, we’re halfway through winter.

The holidays are past, and the cold is beginning to wear on everybody’s nerves. (Unless you’re one of those super-happy-to-be-freezing-all-the-time people.)

What does this time of year call for?

Soup. Lots of it.

In my family, we have soup for dinner every night. It’s souper (ha!) easy, my kids don’t have to ask me a million times what’s for dinner (yep. it’s soup. again.), and it gets us all comfy and warm before bed. 🙂 Plus, with all the hearty broth and stock consumed with soups, it’s healing for our guts. Which is always good, since that generally means the rest of our bodies will be healthier too….

Cauliflower soup has long been a comfort food in my family, and with the addition of sausage and some fresh herbs, this one is a new favorite!

Ingredients

1/2 onion
2 T. coconut or olive oil or ghee
1 qt. chicken stock
1 qt. water
1 head cauliflower
6 sausage (I used farm-fresh breakfast sausage, but I like Applegate Farms, too)
2 c. coconut milk (I like to make my own)
2 T. minced garlic
1 t. oregano
1/2 t. sage (or more, if you like things really sage-y)
1/4 t. paprika
salt & pepper, to taste

Instructions

Dice up onion and add it to a large stock pot, along with the oil/ghee. Saute over medium heat until caramelized (about 10 minutes).
Meanwhile, chop washed cauliflower into small-ish chunks. Add cauliflower to the onions when they're done, then cover with stock and water.
Bring to a boil, then simmer until cauliflower is tender.
While cauliflower is cooking, fry up your sausage (or use already cooked stuff). Add sausage and remaining ingredients to soup.
