Got 40 Minutes? Then Whip Up This Curried Cauliflower Soup!

Must read

If you’re craving for a hearty soup, then this article is made just for you. Below you will come across the recipe for making curried cauliflower soup. Since a single serving of this mouth-watering soup may not be enough for you, the recipe included yields 6 to 8 servings, which is perfect if you also want your family and friends to be delighted!

The curried cauliflower soup you will learn how to make later on is ideal most especially during the coldest months of the year — its curry content will surely keep you feeling warm, cozy and happy the moment that you put a spoonful of it in your mouth.

But having this curried cauliflower soup is also superb during those hot summer months where the viruses responsible for the common cold and flu can be found just about anywhere — from a doorknob to the very air that you are breathing in! This hearty soup is very good at strengthening your immune system.

One of the reasons why this soup is so good for you is the fact that its main ingredient is cauliflower. A member of the cruciferous family of vegetables just like broccoli, kale, Brussels sprouts and cabbage, cauliflower is outstanding at neutralizing toxins within as well as shielding the body from invading microbes.

Cauliflower is also high in fiber, plus it’s extremely low in calories and has negligible amounts of fat. More importantly, this vegetable contains absolutely no cholesterol. So in other words, it won’t make you gain weight and it won’t clog your arteries, but it will surely nourish your body!
