:yummy: soup
I made this tonight in 15 min. It was delicious 
Creamy Cauliflower (or Broccoli) Soup
4 cups lower sodium vegetable or chicken broth
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1 pound cauliflower or broccoli, cut into florets, stems peeled and cut into 1 inch pieces
1 cup heavy cream (I used 2/3 cup of half and half)
1 cup grated cheddar cheese (optional)
Directions:
combine stock, salt and pepper in a large saucepan over med-hi heat, bring to a boil. add cauliflower, reduct the heat to med-low and simmer until tender, about 15 min.
Transfer soup to a blender. Holding blender lid down firmly with a folded kitchen towel, blend at low speed to puree (you may have to work in batches) Return soup to saucepan, bring back to a simmer over med-hi heat. Whisk in cream and cheese, simmer, whisking occasionally, about 5 min.
Try substitution other vegetables like asparagus, artichokes, celery or tomatoes
