My Paleo Cauliflower Soup has one secret ingredient known to heal the gut. This ingredient has been super hot right now, and I wanted to see what the hype was all about! It’s called… Bone broth.
I wish I could say I’m the expert on all of this broth info, but I’m not so I asked my friends at BoneBroths.com to tell me about it. And here’s what they told me:
1) Bone broth makes your joints super smooth.
2) Bone broth makes your hair, skin and nails look dead sexy!
3) Bone broth heals your gut.
4) Bone broth helps your body detox.
Pretty awesome I would say. Go here to reada little bit more about the benefits, and about the company itself (which is pretty greatas well!)
So as someone who promotes healthy food (but can be super picky sometimes), I couldn’t really see myself drinking this stuff without putting it in a recipe. Sometimes, I’m like a child and I have to hide my vegetables, or healthy food in something that I already know that I like to eat. I figured, why not put Bone Broth in Paleo Cauliflower Soup? I thought the recipe mayhave to be “doctored up” a lot, but because the broth is so incredibly flavorful, the recipe only includes5 ingredients! So simple!
I think I like this Paleo Cauliflower Soup because it reminds me of Baked Potato Soup. I mean you can even add cheese, bacon, or any other toppings you like.I personally added a little bit of shredded cheese!
This recipe is a wonderful way to get your veggies ANDyour bone broth in, so enjoy!

How to Study for Step 1

I’ve read about “bone broth” a number of times lately and I find it amusing because for my whole life (I’m 35) this was simply “broth” to me. We’d cook a turkey and before the meal was cleaned up the bones were simmering on the back of the stove for turkey vege soup – we’d roast a ham and the bone went into a pot for pea soup. I do the exact same thing now, and even when I buy myself a roasted chicken at the grocery store the bones become a little stock for soup. I actually thought that everyone did this…so nice to know that this. I’d see Martha Stewart using a whole chicken for broth and I thought how indulgent it would be to use uncooked chicken for a broth…lol…maybe this is how the world works. My parents had me in their 40s and grew up in less than affluent times so, although they have a great life now, those thrifty tendencies remained. I’m glad to hear that the broth is healthy and not just a thrifty way of using up the bones from the meal. By the way, the broth tastes just like broth…if you simmer the bones with a bit of onion or carrot you get a different flavor, if you roast the veggies before simmering them with the bones it’s a bit smokier. I’ve not “wasted” it by sipping it along as I always add my veggies to it for a hearty soup but if you added a bit of salt it would make a lovely shippable cup, but indeed with some carrots, celery, turnip, onion etc it becomes a wonderful cup of soup!

Hey Sarah! Thanks so much for sharing your experience with broth! We also have been making broth in my family for a while but sometimes you just don’t have the time or the means to get high quality bones! This bone broth used in the recipe does have some vegetable flavors in it too, which is always plus 🙂

I love love LOVE this monica! I just finished up a whole30 and I’m actually doing a post today about making my own bone broth! I make it with the bones from a chicken I roast (usually a once a week thing) and then I freeze it in individual servings. I LOVE cauliflower and can’t wait to break out some of my frozen broth to make this soup. my boyfriend is going to dieeeee. xoxo
p.s. I’m sure you already have them but I’m doing a whole30/paleo cookbook giveaway that ends tomorrow if you’re interested in adding a new one to your (im sure ample) collection!

I recently purchased an Instant Pot (stand alone pressure cooker) for making bone broth. It works perfectly, is ready in a few hours and doesn’t smell up my house. It’s fantastic! There is a great recipe on phoenixhelix.com
It also steams veggies and sweet potatoes quickly. It’s been a lifesaver for all the paleo food prep I’m doing.
I got it on Amazon on sale.
