Creamy soup ready in 30 minutes, low-fat but very tasty. Hubby loves it!! Make double batch since it freezes nice, so you can always have a comforting soup for supper. We like this cream with hot garlic bread.

Sounds delicious!


This is a definite "must make" - my daughter's favorite soup, and I love the low fat content, and it's so nutritious...perfect!


I'm at the library right now printing this out, can't wait to try this. I love a creamy soup that way i can sneak a few things in that my son thinks he hates and he will never know.


Hey, friends, I´m so glad you liked this soup... Thanks for the visit and the nice comments.


I like the way this looks with the olive oil drizzled on top.I bet this taste really good I will have to try this.


Qué deliciosa forma de comer coliflor, especialmente ahora que con el frío sólo me apetecen cremitas calentitas. Mil gracias por estas recetas. Ahora soy yo la que le llevo los tupper a mi madre :)


Inmaculada, I made this soup today - it is 5 below zero here and we wanted something warm and comforting. The soup is EXCELLENT - so flavorful and I loved that there was no added fat from butter or cream...healthy, tasty and a true keeper. Thank you so much for sharing this - it is a new family favorite!


Thanks to my friend Krumkake I found this soup. Im going to print this recipe off and make it asap! Thanks for sharing this with us..Michelle


I just made this tonight for dinner..its very good. The kids ate it all up too. Thanks again for sharing! Michelle


This looks really, really good! Great for this "cold" weather we're having!


Wonderful, I love the cheese in this soup. I also like there there is no cream. I will make this for my wife!


I've made this several times already and everyone loves it! My husband and one of my children, don't like to eat veggies at all. It's a daily struggle. So I told them this was a creamy cheesey type of soup. They tasted it and their eyes lit up. Now they ask for it all the time!
They have no idea it's so low in fat and full of Cauliflower,which is the veggie the like the least! Thank you so much for this recipe!
