CREAM OF CAULIFLOWER CHEESE & POTATO SOUP
I find this soup to be very similar to Potato and Leek soup but its refreshing to taste the cauliflower and cheese through it. A winter warmer that will delight.

TWO CHEESE POTATO & CAULIFLOWER SOUP
I found this recipe before I decided to follow a lower fat diet, so I often reduce the cheese amount and it works just as well. I've also combined it with the Weight Watchers Baked Potato Soup #261058 for a nice lower fat recipe. I use broth when doing the baked potato version. Also adding roasted garlic is quite tasty. Can do the potatoes peeled or unpeeled. The cauliflower can be fresh or frozen.

CAULIFLOWER, POTATO AND BLUE CHEESE SOUP
Another delicious recipe from Donna Hay magazine. We had oregano paste, rather than fresh, so we just added some paste to the soup rather than cooking the sprigs.
