From Weight Watchers, Make it in Minutes . Very tasty and very easy to make! I have made it with both fat-free & regular half & half. Works well with either. Ingredients:
1 tablespoon olive oil |
2 leeks, chopped, white portion, substitute 1 1/2 c onions |
2 stalks celery, sliced |
6 cups chicken broth, reduced sodium |
32 ounces cauliflower, frozen |
1/2 cup half-and-half, sub. fat free |
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg, freshly ground |
salt |
pepper |
cheddar cheese, grated (optional) |
Directions:
1. Clean and chop the leeks and celery.
2. Heat oil in a large nonstick sauce pan, over medium heat.
3. Add the leeks and celery, stir frequently, cook until softened, not browned, about 4 minutes.
4. Add the broth and cauliflower, bring to boil. Cover and simmer until the cauliflower is tender, about 10-15 minutes. Remove from heat.
5. In batches or with a blender stick, puree to desired texture. You may want to spoon out and reserve some cauliflower pieces for added texture.
6. Stir in half & half and nutmeg and blend.
7. Top with grated cheddar cheese.
