This creamy, simple, and hearty soup will warm you up and keep you coming back for more! If you skip the bacon, it’s vegetarian.

Ingredients

  • 1½ lbs. (700 g) russet potatoes, peeled (about 3 medium)
  • ½ cup (125 mL) vegetable broth
  • 4 oz. (125 g) sharp cheddar cheese (1 cup/250 mL grated), plus more for topping
  • 2 cups (500 mL) cauliflower florets (6 oz./175 g)
  • 3 cups (750 mL) milk
  • 2 tbsp (30 mL) butter
  • 1 tbsp (15 mL) Three Onion Rub
  • ½ cup (125 mL) sour cream
  •  Optional: Bacon bits, chopped green onions

Directions

  1. Cut potatoes in half lengthwise. Add potatoes and broth to the Rockcrok® Dutch Oven. Microwave, covered for 11 minutes.

  2. Meanwhile, coarsely grate the cheese.

  3. Rotate the potatoes and add the cauliflower. Microwave, covered, 7–9 minutes or until potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.

  4. Coarsely mash the potato and cauliflower mixture. Add the milk, butter, and Three Onion Rub. Microwave, covered, until hot, about 4–5 minutes.

  5. Place the sour cream in a small bowl. To temper, add 1 tbsp (15 mL) of hot soup at a time, whisking between each addition until the mixture is warm. Then add the sour cream mixture into the soup. Stir in the cheese and gently whisk until it fully melts.

  6. Top with additional cheese, bacon, and green onions if you like.

Cook's Tips:

When cold dairy is mixed into a hot sauce, it can curdle. That’s why tempering is your friend; it gradually brings your hot soup and cold sour cream to a similar temperature before combining them completely.

I made this soup but added more potatoes. I also puréed half of the soup to make it creamier. It was such a delicious, hearty meal. I added crumbled bacon and cheddar cheese before serving. My boyfriend who swears he hates cauliflower didn't even know there was any in this soup and loved it! I'd definitely make it again but I'd double the recipe as sadly it's all gone! Great recipe! Thanks PPC!!!

This cauliflower potato soup is hearty and delicious! It has never a regular go-to quick and easy meal in our home with two young children. They both LOVE when I make this soup (one of my children's favorite meal altogether!). This recipe could not be easier.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend
