Directions
Preheat oven to 425. Cover 1-2 baking sheets with tinfoil & spray with butter or olive oil flavored cooking spray. Combine peeled garlic, quartered onions, and cauliflower florets and coat with olive oil, S&P or spread them all out on the pans and spray more cooking oil on them with S&P. Cook until carmelized & brown (45-60 min), stirring every 15 mini. Pick the onions & garlic out as they will be ready before the cauliflower.

Add roasted vegetables to broth and herbs. Simmer 30+ minutes til very tender. Puree with immersion blender. Add milk, cream cheese, and horseradish and season to taste. Heat but don't boil.
