Have I mentioned how much I LOVE soup. I always find a bowl of soup regardless of what the weather is like outside, super comforting and filling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Soup is also a perfect way to get loads of veggies into your meal, especially if you are fussy with what sort of vegetables you will eat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Luckily I love vegetables, but that wasn't always the case. I remember quite vividly hating many as a child, but as I got older and started cooking for myself and trying out new things, vegetables because more and more frequent on my plate, and now I love them all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I can't think of any particular vegetable that I do not like, even Brussel Sprouts which I detested with a passion, mainly because the only way I had ever tried them, was boiled until they were so horrid and bitter, that there was no pleasing anyone's palate with those things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cooking them now, however, where I can cook them to how I like - raw in salads, saut\u00e9ed or roasted, they are yummy. I just never EVER boil them. That horrid bitter taste will haunt me forever I think.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My kids are quite fussy when it comes to vegetables, I think most kids are right? But one way I know they will eat a decent amount of vegetables without a single complaint is in a bowl of soup, stew or casserole. Like this amazing Curried Cauliflower Soup - go figure!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today I had a lovely cauliflower I wanted to use, normally I just steam it, if serving with something like a roast dinner, or occasionally I will roast it in the oven with some seasoning and cumin seeds as a delicious side to a curry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cauliflower is one vegetable that goes perfectly with a curry, especially this Chicken and Cauliflower Curry<\/a><\/strong><\/span>, or if I am on a SP day or just keeping the carbs low, I love this Roasted Cauliflower Rice<\/a><\/strong><\/span> - perfect for mopping up all that lovely curry sauce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I even love to make it the main of the dish, in this Roasted Cauliflower Lasagne<\/a><\/strong><\/span>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Slimming<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

But today I fancied those curry flavours, and instead of serving it alongside a curry dish, I decided to make this Curried Cauliflower Soup. Because today is all about the soups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What can I say - It's super delicious. Trust me!!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once cooked I blend half and leave the other half as is, that way you still get some bites of potato and cauliflower, but if you are serving for a really fussy individual in your household, you might want to blend it all into a smooth Curried Cauliflower Soup<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To blend the soup once cooked I use my Nutri Ninja Blender with Auto IQ<\/a><\/strong> <\/span>(click to see me on Amazon). This blender is amazing. The auto IQ technology feature, mean it blends to a set pattern, depending on what you are making. So my soups are lovely and smooth and perfect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This Curried Cauliflower Soup is delicious served just as it as a side or starter to another dish or make it a complete meal by topping with seasoned chickpeas a drizzle of light coconut milk ( or yoghurt for a option) and chopped fresh coriander.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why not take it to work for lunch in a Thermos food flask<\/a><\/strong><\/span>? Add the toppings to a little container and you can top when reading to enjoy.<\/p>\n\n\n
