Ingredients
  

  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 small yellow onion diced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 large head cauliflower chopped (about 4 cups)
  • 1 cup peeled chopped turnips (fake potato alert)
  • 2 ½ cups vegetable broth
  • 1 ½ cups unsweetened almond milk
  • ½ cup raw cashews soaked 2+ hours or boiled 10 minutes
  • ¼ cup nutritional yeast for that cheesy vibe
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • ½ tsp thyme
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp black pepper
  • Optional: chives red pepper flakes, or fake bacon bits to top

Instructions
 

  • Heat olive oil in soup pot. Toss in diced onion and garlic. Sauté for 3–4 minutes until they spill all their secrets.
  • Add chopped cauliflower and turnips. Stir like you’re stirring trouble. Cook for 5 minutes to soften the situation.
  • Pour in veggie broth and almond milk. Bring to a simmer. Don’t boil like your temper during rush hour.
  • Simmer 15 minutes, or until veggies are fork-tender and emotionally available.
  • Meanwhile, blend cashews, nutritional yeast, mustard, thyme, salt, and pepper. Make it creamy like your favorite moisturizer.
  • Blend the simmered soup and cashew mixture together. Immersion blender or full-size—whatever matches your vibe.
  • Taste and adjust. Add toppings. Serve hot and act like it took hours.
