Cauliflower and Bean Soup (With Fennel Seed & Parsley) image

Sounds complicated, right? I've figured out that its much easier to make gourmet sounding and tasting foods when you have a well stocked spice rack. This soup is mild and hearty. Found in "The Practical Guide to Using Herbs". This is awesome!
