Description
A creamy and comforting cauliflower soup, rich with cheddar cheese and flavored with sautéed onions and garlic, perfect for chilly evenings.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 head of cauliflower, chopped
- 1 onion, chopped
- 3 cloves of garlic, minced
- 4 cups vegetable or chicken broth
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: chives for garnish
Instructions
- Turn on your Ninja Foodi and select the Sauté function. Add onions and garlic and cook until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add the chopped cauliflower and broth. Stir well to combine all the ingredients. Close the lid and cook on high pressure for 8 minutes.
- Once the cooking time is done, use the quick-release method carefully to relieve pressure. Open the lid and enjoy the warm, fragrant steam.
- Use an immersion blender to blend the soup until smooth and creamy. Stir in the heavy cream and cheese, mixing until the cheese is melted. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot, garnished with chives if desired.
Notes
For extra flavor, add smoked paprika or nutmeg. Can be lightened with half-and-half instead of heavy cream.
