Ingredients
- 1 piece onion, cut into large chunks or slices
- 3 pieces potatoes, cut into chunks (about 6 cups)
- 2 tbsp avocado oil or olive oil
- 1 tsp coarse kosher salt
- 6 cups vegetable broth (see notes)
- 0.50 inch knob of fresh ginger
- 0.50 cup macadamia nuts or cashews
- 4 piece -6 cups cauliflower florets
- 1 to taste a small bundle of chives, chopped
- 1 to taste lemon wedges
- 1 to taste a drizzle of infused oil (I like a spicy chili oil)
Instructions
- 1
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
- 2
Place sweet potatoes and onions on a sheet pan; drizzle with oil, sprinkle with salt. Roast in the oven for 30-45 minutes, until golden brown and softened.
- 3
At the same time, place the cauliflower florets on a second sheet pan, toss with 1 tablespoon oil and 1 teaspoon salt. Roast in the oven for 30 minutes (I just tuck it underneath the sweet potatoes and onions).
- 4
Break up the cauliflower into smaller bits using the back of a wooden spoon or spatula. Return to the oven for 10-15 minutes to get extra browned.
- 5
Allow the sweet potatoes and onions to cool slightly. Working in two batches, transfer the sweet potatoes and onions to a blender. Add broth, ginger, and macadamia nuts; puree until very smooth.

Taste and adjust for salt. Serve the soup topped with the roasted cauliflower bits, a sprinkle of chives, a drizzle of oil, and a squeeze of lemon juice. It’s sensory and beautiful! I love this soup!
