While I was making my plant sauce, I discovered how potato like cauliflower can be when it’s boiled and blended. When I decided to put it as a substitute for potato leek soup, not everyone could tell I had even replaced it. Cauliflower is such a great alternative to so many things I’m learning. It’s even perfect for a cruciferous crust! 😉 See how versatile it is in the cauliflower leek soup too…

The cauliflower leek soup is especially my favorite soup to sip as the weather gets cold. I feel that it’s so nourishing and comforting at the same time. If you are in need of extra strength, have a broken heart, are very happy, anxious, or just feeling very amazing this is the soup for you! Hahaha. I made this a while ago and I’m just posting it now. I think I’m going to make myself a giant bowl of it for dinner. With the weather changing, I think drinking the warm cauliflower leek soup can help me acclimate and not get sick. 🥰
