Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Saute the onion and garlic until softened, about 5 minutes.
Add cauliflower and thyme; cook about 3 minutes, stirring often.
Add vegetable stock; simmer on medium heat about 15 minutes, until the cauliflower is very soft.
Remove from heat; add salt and pepper to taste; carefully blend until smooth, using a blender, food processor or an immersion blender.
Add more stock for a thinner consistency, if desired.
Serve in bowls garnished with fresh thyme, roasted chickpeas and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil, if desired.
