Cauliflower Soup

Ingredients:

•2 cups cauliflower flowerets
•4 celery ribs, diced
•3 carrots, chopped (I usually use only 1 or 2)
•1 can cream of chicken soup, undiluted (You can also use cream and chicken bullion instead of the creamed soup)
•1 cup cream or half& half 8 oz. cubed cheese (your choice of flavor)
•1/4 tsp. salt 1/2 tsp pepper Paprika


Directions:

Arrange cauliflower, celery and carrot in steamer basket over boiling water. Steam 10 mins or until crisp-tender; drain. Cook soup and cream or half & half in large saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally, 5 mins. Stir in cheese until melted. Add steamed veggies, salt and pepper; cook until thoroughly heated. Sprinkle with Paprika. Yield: 4 cups.
