My Plant-Based Roasted Cauliflower and Chickpea Soup is a delicious, thick, creamy soup that tastes amazing! All without adding any milk or cream. It’s packed with flavour from the cauliflower, chickpeas, some fresh thyme, lemon zest and off course some tasty bouillon.
I had friends round for dinner the other night and prepared this with some wholegrain bread and sprinkled it with some roasted hazelnuts, cumin and coriander seeds. I then took it to work the next day and had it with one of my super salads.
You’ll definitely be feeling full and satisfied all afternoon long, while flooding your body with lots of fibre and deliciousness!
