For some reason unbeknownst to me, Alex requests that I make this soup for him all the time. When I say all the time I mean every time I am on my way to or from the grocery store and any time I ask, "What should we have for supper?" His answer is always CAULIFLOWER SOUP!
So tonight I made it for him. It's so simple and yummy that I really shouldn't complain. The recipe is from one of those old Milk calendars. Here it is in case you enjoy soup as much as my friend does:

Notes:
I like to add a pinch of nutmeg and some fresh parsley. Oh yeah, and a loaf of homemade bread. By that I mean the instant homemade kind from Costco that I must say is wicked.
