Yum, yum, yum. That's all I can say about this tasty soup. You can also sprinkle each bowl with a bit of light Parmesan or Romano cheese. Enjoy! Ingredients:
cooking spray (i use olive oil in a spritzer) |
1/2 cup carrot, cut into very small cubes |
1/2 cup onion, finely chopped |
2 cups cauliflower florets, fresh |
4 cups chicken broth |
3 ounces small shell pasta, spinach preferred |
1 tablespoon fresh basil, chopped (i've only used dry) or 1 teaspoon basil, dried (i've only used dry) |
black pepper, freshly ground to taste |

1. Spray large saucepan with cooking olive oil spray or nonstick spray. Saute carrot and onion 3 minutes over medium heat, until just tender, stirring occasionally. Do not brown! Add cauliflower and chicken broth; cover and simmer for 10 minutes. 2. Stir in shells & basil and bring to a low boil. Cook 15 minutes, or until shells are just tender.
