They are like pretty flowers!


Cauli-flowers that is! How gorgeous is this?! I was planning on roasting them but decided I wanted a little soup instead. Of course you can use regular white cauliflower, but this mix gave the soup a nice buttery yellow color. My mom always served this soup with some cooked and crumbled Jimmy Dean sausage on top - wish I had some today - had to make do with crumbled bacon.

Easy Cauliflower Soup serves 2

1/2 onion chopped
couple small heads of cauliflower (these were babies!)
1 small potato
olive oil
couple cups whole milk
s&p

Saute the onion in some olive oil. Add the chopped cauliflower and potato and cover with milk. Cook covered about 25 min, or until soft. Puree in a blender or use a hand held blender - leave a little chunky. Add more milk if too thick, taste and s&p. Serve topped with cooked ground sausage or bacon.

  2. I got them at this little roadside pay on the honor system place here in Healdsburg called Love Farms.
