Cauliflower Soup

There are lots of health benefits to eating cauliflower.

Cauliflower is high in fibre and B-Vitamins, it can help strengthen bones.

The outer leaves which most of us throw away are where a lot of the nutrients are.

I have put together a really delicious soup that uses all of the cauliflower greens and florets

I hope you will try this delicious soup it really is tasty and healthy.
