Ingredients
Scale
1 head cauliflower, chopped
1 bulb garlic, roasted
1 onion, chopped
4 cups vegetable broth
2 cups sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
1 cup milk or cream
Salt and pepper to taste
Olive oil
Fresh chives for garnish
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Cut the top off the garlic bulb, drizzle with olive oil, and wrap in foil. Roast for 30-35 minutes until soft and fragrant.
Add the chopped cauliflower and vegetable broth to the pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until the cauliflower is tender, about 10-15 minutes.
Squeeze the roasted garlic into the pot. Using an immersion blender, blend the mixture until smooth and creamy.
Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and milk or cream. Heat gently until the cheese melts. Season with salt and pepper.
Serve hot, garnished with fresh chives.
