The dish possibilities are endless with this low in fat and high in fiber vegetable.

The leaves are falling and there is a real nip to the air lately. I totally love that!!! Sorry, I’m a cool weather gal all the way. The fall means it’s time to start thinking about comfort foods: pumpkin, squash and my fave, cauliflower. What an awesome performer – it can be roasted, boiled, fried, sautéed, steamed or even raw.

Roasted Cauliflower Soup_4 This soup makes an amazing light meal. Take the time to roast the cauliflower. Roasting brings out a nutty goodness that adds a rich flavour to the soup.

Roasted Cauliflower Soup_2 The soup is smooth and delicious, but the prosciutto and pumpkin seeds are a must. Take it up a notch with these clever toppers which add a salty crunch that is totally irresistible! Go ahead – cuddle up and enjoy!
