Made this yesterday as I had cauliflower- already cooked, riced, and frozen!! Just waiting for the right day!! Can I tell you just how YUMMY this soup is?? It’s going to be worked into regular rotation for SOUP FAVES!!! I love the creaminess, and the idea of it being LOW CARB for post holidays is the BEST!!!
