It’s mid October and we’ve already had a snowfall. You know what this means, right? It’s official soup weather!
When I first made this soup, I was just throwing things in a pot and hoping it would work out and taste good, because for the most part, that is how I roll. Mom of three here! To my delight, it turned out delicious and I knew I needed to repeat and share with you all.
What I love about this recipe:
Simple: You only need four ingredients (six if you count salt and the optional bacon) and 30 minutes to create this creamy soup!
Large batch: This recipe makes a large batch. You will have plenty leftover to warm up throughout the week OR freeze for another time.
Comforting: I used to love when my Mom made cauliflower soup when I was a kid. Food memories always bring me comfort but it’s hard not to feel at ease with a big bowl of warm soup on a cool fall day, amirite?
Healing: bone broth and veggies, the good stuff our bodies need!
Yield: 12-16 servings

Do you think this would work in the Instant Pot?
I haven’t tried it in the Instant Pot yet but I’m sure it would work. I would put less broth and cook it for less time, maybe ten minutes? Hope this helps!
I made this today and it’s amazing! I couldn’t find white sweet potatoes so I just used regular ones.
Yay! Thanks for trying Elizabeth, I’m so glad you enjoyed it! ????
I made this yesterday and it’s really good! I used probably about twice as many leeks since I had lots.
So glad you enjoyed! Can’t go wrong with leeks, yum!
I’m making this right now. I added 3 cloves of garlic
Yum! Hope you enjoyed it 🙂
