FIVE VEGETABLE CHEDDAR SOUP

Steps:

• Chop up the onion. Remove the base and any leaves from the cauliflower, and then cut into 6-8 pieces. Remove the stems from the broccoli florets. Peel and chop the potato into cubes. Give the carrots a rough chop. If you're using regular size you may need to peel them first, but this won't be necessary for baby carrots, which is what I used.
• In a large pot combine the olive oil and butter and melt over medium heat. Once the butter is nearly melted, add the onion and cook for 2 minutes, until beginning to soften and quite fragrant. Then add the cauliflower, broccoli, and carrots and cook for another 2 minutes. The broccoli will begin to brighten and become a darker, more vibrant green. Then add the potato and minced garlic. Pour in the stock, season with a little salt and pepper, and cover the pot. Turn the heat down to medium low and cook, covered, for 15 minutes.
• Then remove the lid and continue to cook for another 18-20 minutes, until the potatoes are so soft you can easily mash one with the side of your spoon. Puree with an immersion blender or in a good blender, being careful not to spill any hot liquids. Return to low heat and stir in the cream and cheddar. Taste and season with more salt and pepper to your taste.
