Cauliflower Soup

What better time than when Cauliflower is on sale to try Cauliflower soup? I have to admit, I did not think I would like it, but it is actually very good.

Here is a recipe we use. It is largely from Betty Crocker's New Choices Cookbook with some alterations:

1 head of cauliflower (cut into relatively small pieces)
2 cans chicken broth
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 1/2 table spoons of lemon juice
2 tablespoons Smart Beat Margarine (NO TRANS FAT!!)
1/4 cup flour
1/4 cup oat bran
1 1/2 cups fat free milk
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
Pepper to taste

• Heat the broth in large pan. Mix in cauliflower, onion, and lemon. Let boil until tender (about 15 minutes)
• Once tender, pulverize in foot processor
• Melt margarine, mix in flour,oat bran, milk, and spices.
• Put pulverized cauliflower mixture and margarine and flour mixture in crock pot for about one hour on high.

Enjoy!
I like to add no-salt ketchup to it as well, but most people probably would not ;) Also I like to serve it on toast.
