Roasted Cauliflower Soup
This soup has a great nutty flavor and I like that it is stock based versus cream based, helps with the calories. Serve with French bread.

Directions
Preheat oven to 450 degrees and grease a large casserole dish. Place the olive oil and garlic in a large re-sealable bag. Add cauliflower and shake to mix. Pour into prepared casserole dish, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Bake for 25 minutes, stirring halfway through. Remove from oven and let cool 10 minutes. While the cauliflower is roasting, melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the shallot and cook stirring occasionally, until soft. Add the thyme and chicken stock and cook 10 more minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Remove thyme sprigs from the chicken stock. Place cauliflower in a blender or food processor add the chicken stock mixture and blend until smooth. Pour into soup bowls. Top with Parmesan cheese, parsley and pecans.
