A snow storm has graced our lives today. Yipee. I dislike winter, and I have little patience for it this year especially. I would love nothing better than to disappear to Mexico and never look back! (Keep dreaming!!)
But I digress. Failing running away south of the border, I needed a way to stay warm today. And this soup fits the bill in a plethagora of ways. Flavorful, filling and hearty, this spicy soup made my day warmer and brighter. And it was super easy, take it from me :)
1 box (900 ml) chicken broth
1/2 onion chopped
2 tsp oilve oil
1/2 tsp garlic, jarred minced
3 large carrots chopped
4 medium potatoes chopped (I leave the peels on)
1/2 cauliflower, chopped
1 tsp garlic, jarred minced
1/4 tsp ground chili pepper
1 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp dill
1/4 tsp coriander
dash hot sauce (if you want)
salt and pepper
1/2-3/4 cups milk
**You can adjust the heat of the soup by how much spice you put in. Flavor according to taste**
Sautee onion and garlic in the oil for 2 minutes. Add to the broth in a large pot with the carrots, potatoes, additional garlic and the spices. Cook on medium low heat for 40-50 minutes or until veggies are soft. Add the milk and stir. Pulse in a food processor in small batched until smooth and transfer back to stove and heat on low a few more minutes. Serve
***You can add more milk if too thick***
