CAULIFLOWER POTATO SOUP
Tonight I made Cauliflower Potato Soup for my family and friends. I like this recipe because it is healthy, simple and tasty, like in nutritionally delicious.
Here is the recipe. Tonight I used the outer green leaves of the cauliflower as well, due to its high mineral value. To this recipe I added some bite sized steamed potatoes for texture. Sliced green scallions garnish the soup. Leftover soup is a great freezer item when you want "fast foods".

Creamy Cauliflower Soup
You
can use a stainless submerge blender by Oster, or one by Braun to hand-mix soup
in the pot. If using a regular
blender for hot soup, be careful because steam pressure can build up. To avoid
this, start out on a low setting, and gradually increase to high.
