A low carb soup I think you will find tasty and filling.
I am a soup lover, could eat it everyday. But, some soups just are not low carb friendly. I think this will work for those on low carb diets.
And, you can always use potatoes in place of cauliflower if you are not low carbing. However, I find that I'm becoming quite fond of cauliflower!
Hope you enjoy!
