Hearty warmth…
Cauliflower – with its relatively neutral flavor – is a surprisingly versatile vegetable. It makes a hearty soup and spices up very well. We love the heat that cayenne pepper brings to this cauliflower heartiness, along with the robust flavor that cumin, coriander, and turmeric deliver, too. You’ll love it on those days where you need that perfect feel-good meal.Â
