Cheesy Cauliflower and Potato Soup

Here I present my simple recipe for a hearty Cheesy Cauliflower and Potato Soup, its a soul-soothing comfort meal that’s loaded with vegetables 🙂

I don’t like cauliflower.

There I said it.

It’s bland and usually mushy and it smells bad.

I’ve tried to like this vegetable because it’s so healthy but sadly, I don’t like it.

I’ve tried to dress it up, dress it down and simply mask it.

Yup, I still don’t like it

So why then did I buy a cauliflower you ask?

It was on sale 🤣🤣🤣

Groceries are so expensive a girl needs to be creative when planning a dinner for 4.

Enter cheesy soup.

I’ve always loved cauliflower soup; it was one of the first recipes I followed when I was in high school.

This soup 🍲 is literally made using a mountain of vegetables steamed in chicken stock. It’s incredibly delicious, healthy and satisfying.

This is how you make it
