Golden Cauliflower Soup

Golden Cauliflower Soup

Comforting in color and texture to a cheesy soup.

Add all to a 4 quart crockpot and cook on high 6-8 hours or low 8 – 10.

½ C besan flour (Indian chickpea flour)

½ C red split lentils

½ C Red Star nutritional yeast flakes

¼ C bac’un bits

1 C finely minced onion

1 large clove of garlic minced (1 - 2 tsp)

1 C diced carrots

1 C diced celery

2 C cauliflower flowers

¼ C dry parsley flakes

1 tsp sea salt

1/3 tsp paprika

½ tsp dry ground mustard

2 tsp Penzey’s shallot pepper

2 tsp Bill’s Best chik’n seasoning

2 Tbsp Lemon juice

1 Tbsp tamari (soy sauce)

3 Tbsp deep red/brown miso (mixed with some water so that it dissolves into the soup)

NOTES:

Made 1-15-07 in the crockpot. Added frozen thawed cauliflower to cook for the last two hours. The family enjoyed this meal. I would like to work on the flavoring …. Just a little. I did add Nature’s seasoning to mine and then liked it well enough.
