Ingredients

  • ½ head cauliflower
  • ½ head broccoli
  • 1 onion
  • 1 head kale
  • Vegetable stock
  • Blue cheese
  • Olive oil
  • Pepper

Instructions

  • Begin by preparing the vegetables. Chop the cauliflower, broccoli, kale, and onion into manageable pieces. Place them on a baking tray, drizzle generously with olive oil, and roast in a preheated oven until lightly coloured and tender when pierced with a fork.
  • Once roasted, transfer the vegetables into a blender. Add a suitable amount of vegetable stock to assist with blending and achieve the desired consistency, and crumble in the blue cheese.
  • Blend until smooth. Taste and season with freshly ground pepper as needed. If the soup is too thick, additional stock can be added to thin it to your preference.
  • Serve the soup warm, ideally garnished with a few extra crumbles of blue cheese or a drizzle of olive oil if desired.
