"cauliflower" Potato Soup

[Robyn Owens-Miille 132]

I was wanting warm comfort food tonight.

softened 1/2 an onion, chopped fine in a tablespoons of olive oil.

Add a lb bag of cauliflower florets, 4 cups of Water and 1 stock packet (the concentrated stuff)

add 1 cup of milk when soft

Add salt, pepper and some garlic

once tender, pureed until smooth with the stick blender (You could leave it chunky if you want)

I split the recipe in 1/2 at this point

pot 1:

added 1 bag of jimmy dean turkey sausage crumbles and some crushed red pepper flake

pot 2:

added about a cup of 2% cheese (mix of swiss and american), 12 oz of low sodium lean ham cubed up, 3 slices of turkey bacon (cooked and crumbled)

Both are so yummy! I can't decide which I like more. I despise cauliflower and potato Soup is something I absolutely adored previously (we didn't do Tomato Soup when you were sick, we did potato soup!). I'm very happy with this replacement!

I haven't run them through sparkpeople yet for for calories, fat, Protein, etc.

This sounds tasty. And I am not a fan of cauliflower but I will try this one. Thanks for posting.

I had cauliflower and sausage Soup for lunch today and it was still wonderful. I'm so very happy with this recipe.

Sounds delish! Now I know what to make for dinner (leftovers for tomorrow's lunch!) I just happened to have a head of cauliflower and have JD Turkey sausage in freezer. I'll just chop up the links. I'll have to check out the crumbles-great to add to eggs, etc.

Now I want to make this! I grew up on potato Soup, my momma's was awesome. I have made this version before when we were low carbing. It is a great fall meal!
