- Caramelized onions (1 white onion sliced thin, 3 Tbsp Grape seed oil, 1 tsp turmeric)

Directions: Using a dutch oven, heat avocado oil on medium heat for 2 minutes. Then add red onions, garlic, turmeric, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, black pepper, and salt. Sauté for 3 minutes. Then add cubed potatoes and cauliflower florets. Sauté for 5 minutes. Then add parsley, vegetable stock, water, and place sprigs of thyme on top of soup. Make sure your vegetables are covered right at the same level where your vegetables sit in the pot. It is essential not to drown your vegetables in liquid. Then place lid onto of pot and allow it took cook on medium low heat for 30 minutes. Once liquid has reduced by half, it is time to puree soup. Make sure to remove the thyme sprigs you place onto of your soup. The cleanest and easiest way to puree the cauliflower and potato soup is by using an Immersion Blender, if you don't have one you can also use a blender. I pureed half of the soup and left the other half of the cauliflower potato mixture to remain chunky in the soup for some texture. But it is up to you to decide what you like best! It is absolutely delicious either way! When ready to serve cauliflower and potato puree soup, sprinkle some pistachios, caramelized onions, and finish with olive oil. Enjoy!!!
