I REALLY liked the flavor and texture of this soup. My husband thought it was a bit bland but he liked the texture, so that’s why I’m giving it a 4. I thought it was plenty flavorful, but then again I don’t feel the need to add a tablespoon of salt to everything like he does Next time I may add more cheese; that might help pump up the flavor more for him (and more cheese is never a bad thing in my book).

I *really* wanted to like this… the flavor was AMAZING. However, I just did not like the texture. If anyone has an alternative recipe with a similar flavor, please post suggestions!
*I halved the recipe, no issues
*I omitted shallots (none on hand)

I made this a couple nights ago and it was a hit with my family. I did make a couple of changes/additions. I used a nice quality smoked white cheddar and doubled the amount stated in the recipe. Also, for a little depth, I added some half and half to give it a creamier texture. The roasting of the cauliflower and shallots gave a great flavor to the soup. I gave it 5 mitts because it was perfect just as written, too!
Thanks so much!!!

Just tried this soup after it was featured on the blog (congratulations!). I added a carrot to roast in addition to the cauliflower to get some color in the soup, but I don’t think there was a substantial taste difference. Roasting the vegetables before was a great idea; I’ve made variations of this soup before, but roasting the vegetables brought out the flavor. But, I still felt like the soup was missing some oomf. In the future, I’ll add more cheese. But overall, fast, tasty and healthy recipe!

This was such a great soup! Easy, with simple ingredients and tons of flavor. Using good quality sharp white cheddar made this even better! Thanks!

I made this on the weekend and it was delicious. I had mine with homemade croutons and this is now one of my fav soup recipes. Thankyou!!!

We made this last night, yum. For a vegetable soup it is quite robust. My older children adored it, the younger ones needed some coaxing over the texture, but dug right in once they had a few spoonfuls. Will make it again, maybe with some different cheese options, condsidering gruyere…
