This delicious dairy-free Cauliflower, Leek, & Bacon soup recipe combines the smokey, saltiness of bacon with the creaminess of cauliflower and leeks to create a filling meal that hugs you from the inside out.
After five minutes add garlic and celery, recover and let cook for another minute.
Add a splash of apple cider vinegar, maple syrup, and the cooked bacon. Let heat another couple of minutes then enjoy!
* Just use all the fat rendered from the bacon. No need to measure it out.
* To make this soup vegetarian-friendly, sub the bacon fat for 2 tablespoons of olive oil and use 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of smoked paprika to give it that smokey taste.
