This plant-based soup is creamy, hearty and layered with flavor, thanks to the preserved lemon and cumin cauliflower soup and a drizzly, fresh salsa verde to go right on top. It's incredibly simple, especially if you have an immersion blender on hand, and it's one of my favorite vegetable-packed soups to eat during soup season!
