    This creamy roasted cauliflower soup has a vegetable broth and no heavy cream.   Put this side-by-side against a store-bought creamy soup and you'll be blown away by the comparison in taste.  Then go down the ingredient lists of the two and you'll be floored.  With roasted cauliflower, coriander seeds, nutmeg and a few other veggies this healthy winter soup is packed with nutritional value.  My kids lapped it up and wanted more... it makes me so happy when they feast on veggies like they're a dessert.

    roasted cauliflower soup with saffronThis cauliflower soup recipe is the second time I've featured the vegetable as a star ingredient this week.  Nutmeg, coriander and leeks are ingredients that aren't used all that often and may not be lying around the house, but I recommend trying them out in this recipe.  Especially during fall and winter these can be used in quite a few recipes.

    Saffron may be expensive but just a dash gives the flavor a boost, but is not mandatory.  I keep a small bottle around and use a touch here and there to make it last, then buy another tiny $10 bottle.

Hope you'll enjoy this healthy and nutritious roasted cauliflower soup recipe!
