Cauliflower and Carrots Soup

Recipe #299335 | 50 min | 20 min prep | 7 cups (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: Boomette

This recipe is very good. I made it a few years ago and it's from Jean Paré. This soup can be frozen. It's a thick soup.

    Mmmmmm....... so thick and creamy, without any cream or butter! I used all the ingredients as listed, but simmered everything except the cheese and sherry together (instead of just the first 5 ing) for about 20 minutes. I agree that no additional salt is needed. I used the optional sherry and think it really added a nice touch to the soup. Thanx for posting. I'll be amking this again!

    I had everything in the pantry already. This is a hearty soup, very good on a cold day. We had left over roast, so we fixed sandwiches with it and had this soup. Very satisfying.
