Kale and Cauliflower Soup

INGREDIENTS

1/2 cup diced onions
1 Tbsp minced garlic
1 1/2 tsp extra virgin olive oil
1/2 cup white wine
1 regular size cauliflower, chopped into pieces
3 1/2 cups of vegetable stock (can use vegetable bouillon cubes)
1 cup of kale, thinly sliced & lightly packed
Fresh tarragon, sea salt, and black pepper to taste

DIRECTIONS

Heat oil in pot and add onions and garlic. Cook until translucent. Add wine and cook until wine is reduced by about half.

Add cauliflower and stock to the pot and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook for about 15 to 20 minutes until cauliflower is soft (not mushy). Poke with a fork and it should go through easily but the cauliflower should not fall apart.

Add kale and cook another 5 minutes on low heat. Remove from heat then blend/puree. Add tarragon, salt, and pepper to taste.

Sprinkle with extra tarragon when serving.
