Cauliflower soup recipe

Ingredients

  • ¼ cup Olive oil
  • 2 lbs Cauliflower, trimmed, cored and cut into florets
  • 1 Red onion, finely chopped
  • 4 Garlic cloves, thinly sliced
  • 2 Bay leaves
  • 4 cups Chicken stock
  • 1 cup Veracruz Cooking Sauce
  • 2 cups Water
  • 8 oz Orzo or other small soup pasta
  • Salt to taste
  • 1 Avocado, sliced and diced

Preparation

  1. Heat oil in a large pot over medium-high heat until hot. Add the cauliflower florets and cook, stirring frequently until they start to get tender, 8-10 minutes. Add onion, garlic and bay leaves and cook for 5 more minutes, stirring frequently.
  2. Add chicken stock and Veracruz Cooking Sauce, stir well, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook for 20-25 minutes or until the cauliflower is very tender.
  3. Add water, season to taste with salt, and bring to a boil. Add the orzo and cook for the amount of time recommended on its packaging. Remove from heat.
  4. Check consistency and add more water if needed. Serve in small bowls, topped with avocado dices.
