Looking for a cozy fall soup? You’ll love this delightful Vegan Roasted Red Pepper and Cauliflower Soup! This rich, velvety soup stars roasted red bell peppers and tender cauliflower, enhanced with aromatic garlic and the depth of smoked paprika. Its vibrant color and comforting flavor make it a perfect dish for chilly days. And the best part? It’s easy to whip up!
Start by roasting the cauliflower and bell peppers with a little olive oil and a pinch of salt and black pepper. Roasting the cauliflower and bell peppers brings out their natural sweetness, creating a rich, caramelized flavor that elevates the soup to a whole new level of yum. Once the vegetables are almost done roasting, heat a drizzle of olive oil in a Dutch oven and add the onions, garlic, dried thyme and smoked paprika. Cook until the onions are translucent and the garlic is fragrant. Next, add in the roasted veggies along with the vegetable stock and simmer for about 15 minutes. Finally, blend the soup and serve hot with your choice of toppings. I like mine with a swirl of coconut cream and a sprinkle of fresh chopped parsley.
To make the Vegan Roasted Red Pepper and Cauliflower Soup, you will need the following ingredients:
Heat the oven to 400 °F.
On a large baking sheet, place the cauliflower chunks and red pepper halves. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil and sprinkle with salt and black pepper to taste. Toss to coat well.
Roast for 25 minutes until tender.
Once the vegetables are almost done roasting, heat a Dutch oven or large pot over medium-low heat and add 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add in 1 diced onion, 2 minced garlic cloves, ½ teaspoon dried thyme, and 1 teaspoon smoked paprika and cook until the onions are translucent, about 5 minutes.
Add in the roasted vegetables and 5 cups heated vegetable stock and stir to combine.
Simmer for about 15 minutes.
Blend until smooth using a handheld blender or food processor with the blade attachment.
Serve hot with your choice of toppings.
