Eats: Cauliflower Soup

I love rainy days.  This weather makes me want to curl up with a big cozy blanket, drink some tea, and read a book.  However, my three musketeers make it impossible to do that!  Instead I get to do the next best thing, play Legos, watch cartoons, and make soup!  Here is a quick recipe for a nice rainy day like today.  Enjoy!

Cauliflower Soup


Cauliflower is low in fat and high in dietary fiber, folic, and Vitamin C.  It is best to eat raw but on a rainy day it screams to be boiled and made into a soup. 

One head of cauliflower chopped

2 carrots

1 celery

1 onion chopped

handful of baby spinach

chicken broth or vegetable stock to cover

 

Directions 

Place ingredients in pan.  Cover with chicken broth or vegetable stock.  Bring to a boil and then simmer for 15 minutes.  It is done when the cauliflower is soft when pierced with a fork.  Drain, reserving the broth.  Let it cool for a minute.  Place in a blender or use a hand mixer.  Puree until smooth adding the reserve broth until the desired consistency.  Salt and pepper and enjoy with a slice of multi-grain country bread.
