Hi ya’ll! How was everyone’s Halloween?
OUR LATEST VIDEOSAttend any fun parties?
Was your costume epic?
Do share, because I didn’t attend any parties and I didn’t have a costume… unless comfy pajamas count. 😉
I spent a small part of the weekend relaxing, but mostly I was working on Thanksgiving and Christmas recipes for you guys.
I’m pathetic… or completely dedicated to the NSN holiday cause.
Your call. #NoShameInMyGame
Anyways, instead of talking about ghosts of NSN future, let’s talk about the present.
Can you believe I haven’t posted one soup yet this year?
Like, nada. Zip. Zilch. Zero.
I feel like I have been soupa behind on the fall food seasonal thang. (<– Maybe too much brew from the Pumpkin Keg).
Well, times they are a changin’.
And, soup? It’s a getting’ posted, starting today.
Loaded Southwestern Roasted Cauliflower Bisque
This soup is so scrumptious I feel as though you should forgive me for holding out on you guys.
Or, better yet, take a bite and I can guarantee you will forgive me.
This cauliflower soup is like eating a silky, creamy cloud of pure comforting deliciousness.
We all know I am a huge fan of cauliflower.
Boy? Ummm… Not so much.
But, he actually loved and devoured this soup. I Swear! I would never tell you lies.
He ate this soup for lunch and dinner 3 days in a row. Like whoa.
Then, he went on to inform me he was going to the store to purchase more cauliflower and I needed to whip together another batch of bisque immediately. (<– I almost fell over in delight)
I don’t mind the demands of Boy when it’s for something this wholesome, healthy and delicious. Plus, this cauliflower bisque is seriously easy to whip together… of course I didn’t I let him in on that minor detail. 😉
What does cauliflower bisque taste like?
So what makes this roasted cauliflower soup too legit to quit?
First of all, the cauliflower is generously seasoned with tex-mex spices and roasted prior to being added, which gives the soup layer of smoky, caramelized cauliflower flavor.
Second, white beans are added to the mix.
Once everything is blended together, the beans create a rich, thick and luxurious mouthfeel. They make this soup taste identical to a bisque, minus the addition of heavy cream. #Winning
The soup on its own is simply marvelous, but the toppings take this soup over the top and make it magically delicious.
The southwestern garnishes add a touch of crispy, salty, cheesy, herby, slightly spicy nom-tastic-ness to the party.
While they are optional, they really should not be skipped!
Besides, I know your secretive-la-cucaracha-singin’
So do yourself a favor and load up on the toppings.
How to puree roasted cauliflower in soup:
There are two ways you can puree the cauliflower for soup.
The first is the quickest, easiest, and requires the least clean up – using an immersion blender.
If you own an immersion blender, you already know how handy this kitchen tool is! You can simply insert the immersion blender into the pot to puree the soup to your desired consistency. For a silky smooth, bisque texture, you will want to completely puree the the soup mixture.
If you do not own an immersion blender, don’t fret!
Simply transfer the soup (IN BATCHES!) to a stand blender, puree the soup, transfer the soup back to the pot, and proceed with the recipe as instructed.
You want to make sure you puree the soup in a stand blender in batches to avoid the hot soup from exploding out of the blender. Hot soup will steam and expand in the blender, which will push the top off of the blender (hence causing a soup explosion), so always make sure you puree in batches and avoid filling the blender all the way to the top!
This Southwestern Roasted Cauliflower Bisque is basically like a warm hug from a loved one in a bowl. It will definitely make you feel all the warm and fuzzies. And, you will probably go to bed at night dreaming of this soup. Shoot, you might even pull a “Boy” and demand your love one make you this soup daily.
So, get into the kitchen, make this soup, slurp it up and prepare for your world to be rocked.
Until next time, Cheers – to bodacious bisque in your belleh!

How to Make Southwestern Roasted Cauliflower Soup Recipe and Step-by-Step Video👇
Silky, smoky roasted cauliflower bisque thickened with white beans, flavored with Tex-Mex spices and garnished with bacon, pico de gallo, tortilla chips and plenty of cheese!
- 1 large Head Cauliflower – cut into florets (about 2 ½# Head)
- 1-2 TBS Extra Virgin Olive Oil *
- 1 ½ tsp Ground Cumin , divided
- 1 tsp Smoked Paprika , divided
- 1 tsp Chili Powder , divided
- 1 tsp Salt , divided plus more to taste
- 1/8 tsp Pepper , plus more to taste
- 6 Slices Center Cut Bacon – diced into ½’’ pieces, or more to taste (OPTIONAL)*
- 1 small Yellow Onion – roughly diced
- 1 large Jalapeno – stemmed, partially seeded* and diced
- 2 large cloves Garlic – finely diced
- 1 (15.5 oz.) Can Cannellini Beans – rinsed and drained
- 4 Cups reduced sodium Chicken or Vegetable Stock
- ½ Cup Half and Half , or more to taste (Can substitute heavy cream)*
- Optional Garnishes: Sour Cream, Tortilla Strips, Pico, Cilantro, Shredded Cheese, Lime Wedges
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Line a large sheet pan with aluminum foil for easy clean up.
- Roast Cauliflower: In a small bowl, mix together 1 teaspoon cumin, ¾ teaspoon paprika, ¾ teaspoon chili powder, ½ teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Place cauliflower florets into a large bowl and drizzle with olive oil. Toss to coat. Pour the mixed spices on top of the cauliflower and toss to thoroughly coat. Transfer cauliflower to prepared sheet pan. Roast, turning once, until cauliflower is golden and cooked through, about 20-30 minutes. Remove from oven and set aside.
- For the Soup:
If using bacon: Add bacon to a Dutch oven or stock pot and place over medium heat (start in a cold pot). Cook, stirring occasionally, until cooked through and crispy, about 8-12 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove bacon and set aside. Pour off all, except about 1 ½ tablespoon of, drippings*.
(if not using bacon, add a tablespoon of oil to the pot before proceeding) Add onion and jalapeno. Season with ½ teaspoon cumin, ¼ teaspoon paprika, ¼ teaspoon chili powder, ½ teaspoon salt and a pinch of pepper. Sauté until soft and onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the roasted cauliflower, cannellini beans and stock to the pot. Increase heat to high, bring mixture to a boil and immediately reduce heat to simmer. Simmer for 15-20 minutes.
Use an immersion blender to puree soup to desired consistency (alternatively, transfer soup in batches to a stand blender, puree, and transfer back to pot*). Stir in half-and-half. Taste and adjust for seasoning.
- Ladle soup into bowls and garnish with reserved bacon and additional optional toppings. Enjoy!
Recipe Video
- Yield: Roughly 6-7 Cups
- For the jalapeno- leave the seeds intact for a spicier soup, partially seed for a mild soup, and fully seed for a non-spicy soup.
- I used 6 slices of bacon, but feel free to use more!
- Pour excess drippings of bacon grease into a small container with a tight fitting lid and refrigerate for future use. Use in place of oil or butter for additional flavor in dishes.
- To make this vegetarian: Omit the bacon from ingredient list and skip step #3. Use 1 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil to sauté onion and jalapeno in step 4.
- I used low fat half-and-half, but feel free to use what you prefer.
- If you are using a stand blender to puree the soup, make sure you puree the soup in batches to avoid the hot soup from exploding out of the blender. Hot soup will steam and expand in the blender, which will push the top off of the blender (hence causing a soup explosion), so always make sure you puree in batches and avoid filling the blender all the way to the top!

I forgive you for not posting a post because this one looks like it’s over the top!! I love how you spiced it up Cheyanne!! I am sure Boy couldn’t get enough of it. And those toppings!! Your photos just have me craving a huge bowl of the yummy soup! Awesome recipe! Pinning asap!
Thanks so much for the kind words and the pin, Mary Ann! Cheers! <3
Could this be made in the crockpot?
Hi Laura,
Since this is a roasted cauliflower soup, you could make this in the crock pot, but you would lose all the great roasted flavor. If you have your heart set on using the crock pot, you would still need to cook the bacon until crispy in a skillet (if using). Then add it along with all the remaining ingredients, MINUS the cream, to the crock pot. Cover and cook on low for 3-4 hours. Stir in the half and half and serve immediately with desired garnishes. I have not tried making this is the crock pot, so if you try it, let me know how it goes! Cheers and thank you for stopping by!
Oh gosh, yea you’re right! I’ll probably just make it your way Thanks for the advice! Ps. I made the ginger chicken meatball miso soup last week! It was really good and my husband liked it!
You haven’t posted a soup yet this year? I think you have lots of catching up to do 😉 Soup is the way forward, and this looks epic.
No dressing up for Halloween here either, just PJs. Although we did have a ton of trick or treaters this year, which we never do, so I had to share my chocolate with them.
I definitely have a lot of catching up to do, Dannii!! Sorry you had to share your chocolate! If you lived close by I would have given you mine! Thanks for the comment, dear! Cheers!
This bisque looks so amazing, Cheyanne! I’m seriously addicted to soups, especially bisques. I love the creamy texture and warm flavors. This southwester cauliflower version looks just perfect! I can only imagine how delicious your house smelled when you made this. Sounds perfect for the fall weather that’s headed my way!
Thank you so much, Gayle! My house did smell fantastic! Cheers to a fabulous day!
Oh my gosh, I couldn’t love this soup any more if you paid me – it’s just plain perfect (said the fellow cauliflower lover!). And I am also in love with those gorgeous boards you photographed it on. Fabulousness all the way around – pinning! Happy Monday!
Thank you so very much for the sweet comment and the pin, Kate!! Cheers, lovely!
Nope, I didn’t have any halloween costume. But at least I got a new glasses which might help me to have a smart look. Finally. So hopefully, I did have a “nerd” costume this year! And I’m forgiving you for not attending any parties but working on Christmas recipes. But please, could you add in you list working on your mailing issues (aka my Christmas food parcel) too?
Congrats on the new glasses, Nerd! 😉 I’m working on the mail issues. I swear. lol. Cheers, buddy!
Hey Cheyanne, Happy Monday! No costume here personally, but I did costume some little people, most notably Daniel Boone. 🙂 Awesome soup friend. Looks so smooth and delicious and love all the yummies piled on top. We’re trying this at our house and I will not tell all the little boys (or big boys) it is cauliflower soup until after the bowls are licked clean. Have a wonderful week girlfriend!
I’m sure your children were dressed absolutely adorably, Allie! Daniel Boone sounds too cute!!! Thanks so much for the sweet comment, lady! If you do make this for the kiddos, I hope they love it! AND I hope you let me know how it went over! Cheers to you and a wonderful week, my dear! XO
Sadly, I did not have a groovy Halloween costume this year, but we did go trick or treating with some visiting little people and had a fantastic time! And there is absolutely nothing wrong with hanging out in your jammies and developing holiday recipes in the SoBourbon Country Cottage! If you have more recipes coming as delicious as this southwestern roasted cauliflower soup business, then I support your activities 100%! P.S. Did you knock over a farm stand out there in the country and steal their sign? Love it! 🙂
So glad you had a fantastic Halloween! AND you actually went trick-or-treating! Bravo, because I know you and Chris normally don’t do that! 😉 Thanks for the A-ok on staying in my jammies and developing recipes! AND thank you so much for the kind words, my dear! Cheers, Rachelle! xo
This soup is gorgeous, Cheyanne! Love the flavours – so perfect and comforting for the time of year. Loving all the toppings too! Great recipe, thanks so much for sharing! 🙂
Thank you so much for the sweet comment, Jess! Cheers, dear! 🙂
Hey Cheyanne, didn’t attend any parties I was away at the beach for the weekend, but seriously love this bisque, I am a soup junkie and I would take any chance I have of having any soup comfort! Great southwestern flavors! hugs
Being at the beach is sooooo much better than attending parties, Gaila! I’m super jealous! Thank you so much for the kind comment, my dear! Cheers and hugs back at ya! <3
This bisque looks delightful, Cheyanne! I am a lover of soups and would especially enjoy this bisque. The cauliflower with southwestern flavor was an excellent choice. It looks so creamy and comforting for a cool fall day.
Thank you so much for the sweet comment, Jen! Cheers to a fabulous week!
Ok, so usually totally lame on Halloween (I’m not much for dressing up!), but this year I helped out at a haunted house and it was super fun. But yes, I did eat too much candy and I have a massive sugar hangover. Ugh! So I need some healthy soup action STAT!
OMG, Helping out at a haunted house sounds like a blast, Liz!!! I would have loooved that… minus the sugar hangover, of course! 😉 Thanks for the comment, girlfriend! Cheers!
I’m glad to hear you had a great weekend! I relaxed a lot too and caught up on TV and cuddles with the baby. Talking about cuddling, this gorgeous bowl will be perfect for dinner on these chilly nights!
Relaxing and cuddling with your sweet babes sounds like the perfect weekend, Zainab!! Thanks for the comment, dear! Cheers! 😉
My secretive-la-cucaracha-singin’-self is soupa excited you finally got to the business of soup! This one’s a keeper, for sure! So creamy and comforting and spicy and delish! I’m with “Boy”! I could eat it everyday! Thanks for sharing, dearest! xo
Hahaha! Thanks so much, Annie!! Love your comments, they always make me laugh and smile! Cheers, doll! xo
Glad to hear you had such a nice weekend Cheyanne! I was also relaxing in my pyjamas! I’ve just started writing down my ideas for Christmas recipes :). This bisque looks so beautiful! I’ve always wanted to try a bisque! The flavours sound so delicious! Yum!!!!
Yay to relaxing in pajamas, Harriet!! I can’t wait to see what you post for Christmas, I KNOW it is going to be absolutely delish! Thanks so much for the sweet comment, girlie! Cheers! <3
Your weekend sounded perfect! So glad you got some time to relax 🙂 Love this cauliflower bisque! It looks perfect with all those gorgeous toppings!
Thank you so much, Kelly! You are too sweet! Cheers to a beautiful day, my dear! 😉
I want this right now! Seriously, this looks amazing 🙂 I’m all about those garnishes! Love the addition of the beans, too. Great receipe, Cheyanne!
Thank you so much, Dawn! If I could deliver I would send you some! 😉 Cheers, girlfriend!
This soup looks absolutely delicious! Your weekend sounds amazing – my hubby and I do get dressed up and go to friends’ Halloween party. It was so cold this year so this soup would be perfect after a cold Halloween weekend 🙂
Thank you so much, Phi! I hope you had enough fun for us both at your friend’s party, because I feel slightly jipped of Halloween! Cheers, lovely! 😉
Now that’s a soup! I wish I was holding that bowl of goodness!
Thank you so much, Angie! Cheers to a fabulous week my dear!
Haha – you are most definitely NOT pathetic and this soup shows you have plenty of game, I am willing to be that your Christmas/Thanksgiving recipes are gonna be EPIC! But back to this soup – this is so luscious and oooh those spices must give the cauliflower and beans so much depth and love, love love those toppings!
P.S. Bacon is to me what Boy is to you #SoSadIKnow
Thank you so much, Shashi! I’m totally looking forward to your holiday recipes because you are sooo creative! AND so you know, Bacon and Boy are on the same level of importance. lol. SHHHH don’t tell! 😉 Cheers, doll!
Lolol, soupa. I had a very similar Halloween weekend to yours, so cheers to that! Also this soup – I love it. I am in love with soup thickened with cauliflower – plus this one, with the bacon and the southwest flavors?? I can’t wait to try it!
Helllz yea, Cheers to relaxing and jammies, Meghan! Thanks so much for the sweet comment, girlfriend! <3
We didn’t attend any parties, but we did get a puppy! (See my blog today to meet him!!!) Mmmmm roasted cauliflower is my jam. I love the southwestern twist you put on this soup. It’s comfort with a kick! 😉 Happy Monday dear! XOXO
Lauren, I totally saw your post already AND I commented. So by now you know I’m a seriously jealous girl. Just remember ME whenever you need a puppy sitter!!!! Thank for the comment and Cheers to your and Reese!!
No costume for me . . just the kids. . and aside from the Halloween festivities, I was also working my butt off. . weekend went by too fast and no leftover candy over here 🙁 .. dude, love this roasted cauliflower bisque! looks so flavorful. . and I love that your husband loved it too!!! Winning!
I follow you on FB (Obvi), so I KNOW how cute your girls were dressed for Halloween! No leftover Halloween candy isn’t really a bad thing.. just means no temptation and more room for soup and Thanksgiving creations! 😉 Thanks for the comment, Alice! Cheers, my dear!
This is such a creative soup! Love the southwestern flavors! I mostly wait for Halloween to be over so I can get ready for Christmas without being ashamed… Lol. SO nothing too exciting here!
Thank you so much, Ashley! I totally hear you on the whole “bye bye Halloween! Hellllllllooo Christmas!” I am right there with you, girlfriend!! Cheers, doll!
Can’t wait to try this recipe! I just bought a big beautiful head of cauliflower and I think I might have most of the other ingredients…..looks fantastic!
Thank you so much, Stephanie! I hope you LOVE this bisque as much as we did! And I hope you let me know how it turns out! Cheers and thank you again for stopping by and commenting!
It seems a lot of people had a quiet Halloween this year – it was very quiet in my neighborhood – I usually get a couple of kids but none this year. This soup, Cheyanne – Wow – it has a lot of yummy flavors going on! I’ll have to leave the bacon out but I think all the great garnishes will make up for it! Thanks!
No kids just means you got to relax… hopefully?! Thank you so much for the kind comment, Geraldine! I actually left the bacon out of a few of my bowls of this bisque because Boy ate it all, and I can tell you it is JUST as delicious! Cheers to a fabulous day, my dear!
Oh my! This bisque sounds fantastic Cheyenne! You have outdone your self again!!
Thank you so much for the sweet comment, Kelley! Cheers girlfriend!
I love that this is pureed and looks so creamy! The addition of white beans makes it a complete meal too.
Thanks so much, Dani! This definitely filled Boy and I up, but it is equally delicious in a bread bowl for a heavier meal! Cheers girlie!
It sounds like you had a pretty good Halloween weekend to me. This soup sounds wonderful! It’s getting pinned so that I can try it, hopefully soon! Have a great week!
Glad you had a good Halloween, Thao!! Thank you so much for the sweet comment and pin, my dear!! <3
I don’t dress up for Halloween, but my kids do and we all had a fun time trick or treating. 🙂 I’ve been wanting to make cauliflower soup for a while and this version looks delicious! I love that you added cannellini beans!
I’m sure your kids were adorably dressed, Kristine! And I’m so glad you guys had a fabulous Halloween! Thanks so much for the kind comment! Cheers! 🙂
You’re not pathetic for working on holiday recipes (maybe I was, too)! 🙂 This soup looks delicious, and I love that you loaded all kinds of delicious toppings. Cauliflower is a favorite of mine, so I’m very into this! 🙂
Lol! Well thank you for not thinking I am pathetic! AND for joining me in working on the weekend! I’m sure you will agree, being in the kitchen doesn’t ever feel like work, so it’s a pleasure to do it on the weekends. 🙂 Cheers, my dear!
Bodacious bisque, here I come with my belleh!!! Seriously. Printing the list as we speak, going to the grocery store, and will be making this asap. You had me at Tex-Mexing the cauliflower. And those toppings….drool! I was thinking oooh what’s she making for Thanksgiving and Christmas after you said you spent the weekend developing recipes, but then I scrolled down and got all caught up again in this delicious bisque and I swear, my eyes turned into big giant hearts like those emoticons. You rock, Cheyanne!! <3 <3
Hahaha, Thank you so much, Beeta!! You are always so sweet and supportive! Reading your comments make my day! Cheers to you my sweets and thanks for being fabulous! XO
Haha – you are NOT pathetic at all. I am eagerly waiting for your Christmas/Thanksgiving recipes. They will be a super HIT. And this soup is so gorgeous, rich and classic — so perfect and comforting for the time of year. Cauliflower and beans go so well together. Love the all delicious flavors. Loving all the toppings! 🙂
Aww, well thanks so much, Anu, for the seriously sweet comment! 🙂 Cheers, doll!
Definitely winning minus the heavy cream! I love how cauliflower is creamy enough to make a base for soups with other more creative ingredients. This looks great!
And I can’t wait to see what you have planned for the holidays. I spent the weekend baking too!
Thanks so much Mir! I love creamy minus the heavy cream too… although I DID add it to the recipe as an option for the Paula Deen, heavy cream loving wild ones. 😉 I can’t wait to see what YOU have planned for the holidays! Cheers girlfriend!
I really do need some bodacious bisque!! I’m a cauliflower addict like you and the southwestern flavors here are just top notch. And yes to ALL of those toppings – so super yummy! I can see why you guys ate this day after day… I will be too! (Also, you know I love that it doesn’t have the heavy cream. More reason to keep going back for more!) Cheers to making up for lost time on the soup situation 😉 XX
Hahaha! I think we all need a little bodacious bisque in our life during this time of year! Thanks so much for the sweet comment, Kathryn!! Cheers, my dear! XO 😉
You had me at cauliflower…and with all those toppings…all I can say is YUM!
Thank you so much, Mike! I know you love cauliflower, so I’m glad I got your approval! Cheers!
You are forgiven only if you come to my house and make me a pot of this soup because my laziness is at a all time high today..haha
Done, girlfriend! But you have to make me something too!! Your dishes are way to delicious for you to NOT cook for me too! Cheers, doll. oh, AND I’ve been feeling super lazy too! 😉
This looks so tasty, my goodness! I have not had enough soup/stew/bisque yet this season!
Thank you so much, Mary! This was my first bisque of the season, so I’m late to the soup party as well! Cheers to a beautiful day!
I love cauliflower soups and especially like how you’ve added so many amazing flavors to yours! I can’t believe it’s already November and that it’s time to start thinking about holiday cooking…where did the time go?! Can’t wait to see what sorts of recipes you post for the holidays!
I can’t believe it’s already November either, Julia! Where does time go? I can’t wait to see what you come up with or the holidays either, I am sure it will be fabulous! Thank you so much for the sweet comment, girlie! Cheers!! 🙂
The soup really looks scrumptious. No Halloween story here, Halloween is pretty non-existing in Germany, I would not know it was there if it wasn’t for all the American food blogs I follow. 🙂 🙂
I forget Halloween isn’t a world wide Halloween! But, since I didn’t do anything for it this year, obviously you didn’t miss out! Thanks for the comment dear! Cheers to a fabulous day!
Couldn’t pin this recipe quick enough! You already know that we did all our Halloween partying the weekend before and on the actual holiday, we passed out candy, grilled some steaks, and got drunk. I’m all in whenever I can eat soup with bacon and cheese on top so making this my go-to soup this winter 🙂
I know your weekend before Halloween AND your costume were epic, Karrie! I am STILL laughing at your 80s fabulous get up. Sounds like you had a fabulous Halloween weekend too! I’m jealous. Thanks for the comment and the pin, girlfriend! XO
Wow, what a beautiful creation! Gorgeous bisque with so many amazing flavours happening!
Thank you so much, Jess! Cheers to a beautiful day!
I’m totally up for eating a delicious cloud of wonderful! I can’t wait to try this soup since I pretty much live on soup from October to March. This looks amazing and sassy! Delicious! 🙂
I did not have a Halloween costume this year 🙂 Love soups and make them all the time, but rarely post the recipes! This one looks amazing! Great combination! The pictures are beautiful! Pinning 🙂
I absolutely love cauliflower soup because it’s so creamy on it’s own you don’t need to add any cream! looks yum!
WOW!! This looks amazing!! I def need to try making cauliflower soup!! What a healthy, fun, delicious idea! LOVE it!
haha um yeah, pajamas were my costume as well!! This soup looks so creamy and dreamy. We LOVEEEE cauliflower at our house so this most definitely needs to happen!!
Such a beautiful looking soup! I love all the toppings!!!
Well after 3 minutes of scrolling down to leave this comment I see I am not the only one in love with this recipe.
This sounds De-lish! Love the idea of roasting the cauliflower and blending with white bean. Smart lady! All these toppings are killer Chey. Beautiful shots. 🙂
Oooo I have got to try this! I think I can sneak it past my “non-healthy” eating husband!
Haha! Thank you so much, Julie! If you try it, I hope your husband is (like mine and) oblivious to the fact that it is cauliflower! Cheers to a wonderful weekend! 🙂
Yum! Made this tonight and it’s delicious! The roasted cauliflower was so good I’m surprised it made it to the soup! Thanks for sharing the recipe!
I’ve been looking for new soup recipes to try and this looks awesome! This Halloween was fun 🙂 I wish I had more candy 🙂 Sharing and pinning 🙂
I’ve been eating a lot of soup lately, Cheyanne – so I’m putting this on my to do list. Love the flavors – especially the roasted cauliflower – and adding in white beans is so smart! Hope you’re having a great weekend!
Your video really helps knock this soup recipe right out of the park Chey! It shows just how thick, creamy and delicious it is! I wish I could grab that spoon and take a taste myself! We’ve been eating lots and lots of soup this winter season. Can’t wait to get this one in our rotation. Hope you have an awesome week! XO
This skinny bisque is just what the doctor ordered! I love your video, my friend! This is surely a keeper! 🙂 Have a wonderful week! xoxo
I’m so glad you reposted this because I missed it the first time around and I LOVE CAULIFLOWER! I also love soup. And I need this for dinner tonight! Or lunch . . .or second breakfast? Seriously, this is happening ASAP. Have a great week, Chey!
What a great repost and video!! This soup looks so yummy!! Cauliflower is the super food!! Take care.
I love your skinny twist on this, Chey!! Roasted cauliflower is beyond delicious – I tried it in a soup recently and couldn’t get enough. Can’t WAIT to try this one!!
This recipe is sooo delicious! And, it’s versatile for all the accouterments that can go on top. I add steamed purple cabbage, cilantro lime rice, and plantain chips; but it is totally good without all of that, too.
I enjoy it because I like to meal prep on Sunday, and this bisque lasts me the whole week! On Friday it’s still tasty. Because of this, I’ve made it literally five weeks in a row. The clerk at the grocery store commented, “Gee, you sure like cauliflower!”
I also appreciate the ease of the recipe itself. It has practical ingredients, well- explained step by step directions, and ways to make it without the meat or dairy should one not prefer to add those.
Thanks! I’m going to try out your other recipes now, too.
Hi James,
I’m absolutely thrilled you enjoyed this bisque so much!! I love that you made the recipe your own and all your additions sound wonderful!! Thank you so much for coming back and letting me know how the bisque went over! Cheers and happy cooking!!
Made this tonight. No bacon.
BUT, I did use bacon grade to caramelized the onions. No crews or half and half, used sour cream. This got 4/7 yum. 5 year old was on a toot dating he doesn’t like soups, He still ate it.
Girls didn’t like it, the guys and I did. Great flavor, nice texture.
Yes, making again another day.
