If you are looking for an easy, minimal ingredient lunch recipe then this is the perfect recipe for you! I made this in under 20 minutes!
This recipe is perfect for helping support your immune system with over 100% of your Vitamin C in a serving. What makes it so high? CAULIFLOWER!! Just one serving (100g) of Cauliflower has your recommend daily requirement of vitamin C- I know impressive right!

So how do we make a dairy free soup cheesy? Nutritional yeast! I use Engevita nutritional yeast flakes in a lot of my vegan dishes to give them a cheesy taste. I simply add a 1-2 tbsp. It adds an amazing flavour and I couldn’t recommend enough! It’s also relatively high in protein giving this soup a little boost to 12g a serving.
“Kind of like the yeast used to make beer and bread, nutritional yeast is part of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast family. It’s a naturally fantastic source of complete vegan protein, is rich in B vitamins and has a trace amount of minerals. These Engevita Nutritional Yeast Flakes have also been fortified with vitamin B12, making them a good way to get this important vitamin”. (Quoted from Holland and Barrett website)
This soup really reminds me of a mac and cheese sauce, thick, creamy and cheesy… you really can’t beat it! I serve mine with crusty bread and butter… the pfrerfect winter warmer!
