Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 pounds leeks chopped (about 4 leeks) (you'll have about 3/4 pounds after you cut and clean them), green part removed
  • 1 (16 oz) bag frozen cauliflower
  • 2 stalks celery diced
  • 1 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 3 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1/2 cup white wine
  • 1/2 cup shredded parmesan cheese or nutritional yeast

Optional but highly recommended topping

  • truffle oil*
  • Cilantro Pesto

Instructions

  • Place leeks, cauliflower, celery, salt, pepper, garlic, broth, almond milk, and wine into a greased crockpot. Stir to combine.
  • Cover and cook on HIGH for 3-4 hours or LOW for 6-8 hours.
  • After the cook time, stir in the parmesan or nutritional yeast.
  • Directly in the crockpot, use an immersion blender to blend the soup until smooth. Alternatively, you can gently pour the soup into a blender and blend until smooth.
  • Taste and season with salt, if necessary.
  • Serve immediately with truffle oil* and cilantro pesto!

Notes

*You can add the truffle oil into the whole pot of soup (start with a 1/2 teaspoon and go from there...we used about 1 + 1/4 teaspoon) OR you can serve up the soup and let people add as much or as little truffle oil to their own serving.
**Nutritional information doesn't include truffle oil or cilantro pesto.
