    Recipe Introduction


    4 servings

    List of Ingredients




    2 cups cauliflower -- chopped
    1 cup chicken broth
    1/4 cup carrot -- sliced very thin
    1/4 cup celery -- sliced thin
    1/4 cup onion -- diced
    1/2 cup cream
    1/2 cup water
    1 1/2 tablespoons butter
    2 cups button mushrooms -- sliced
    1/2 clove garlic -- minced (optional)
    1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley



    Recipe



    1
    In a 2 1/2 quart pot, combine cauliflower, broth, onion, carrot, and celery. Bring to a boil then reduce heat to low and simmer until vegetables are tender -- about 15 minutes.
    2
    Remove from heat, add cream and water; stir to combine. Pour 1/2 the mixture into a blender and process until smooth; pour into a bowl. (Cover lid of blender with a towel and hold down so the heat of the mixture will not blow the top of the blender off and burn you!)
    3
    Continue with the remaining mixture; set aside. Using the same saucepan, heat the butter over medium heat until hot and bubbly; add the mushrooms and garlic; sauté until lightly browned.
    4
    Add puréed vegetable mixture and parsley to mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally until soup is thoroughly heated; 2 to 3 minutes Do not boil, as the cream may curdle.
