    A delicious and healthier alternative to the classic potato soup. Contains tons of flavors. Roasted Cauliflower "Potato" Soup with Bacon. 

    Roasted Cauliflower Potato Bacon Soup

    With the beginning of the New Year I always want to try to incorporate healthier meals into our diet. I mean, don't we all? So far I have been trying so many different healthier options to the classic potato soup and this one is a true winner.

    I will have to say this is the longest I have stuck to any New Year's resolutions. I saw somewhere on social media (I think Facebook) someone posted and this is where people start to break their resolutions. Nope not me. I want to try to stick with it for awhile  - need to get my health back. 🙂

    Roasted Cauliflower Potato Soup with Bacon

    This delicious faux potato soup still has tons of fat (the healthier fats), but low on carbs. Hey...it has veggies too! 🙂

    I love how easy it is and if you just have two people in your home, then it will make dinner, 2 lunches for the next day, AND dinner the next day. I love those types of meals because I only have to heat it up the other times.

    If you don't want to eat it that much, I am almost positive you can freeze it as well. Yum - that would be good.

    If you are a family of four, then it will make dinner and lunches for adults the next day! Plenty of cauliflower "potato" soup to go around.

    I didn't even mention the best part of this soup - bacon! Mmmm...bacon. Everything tastes good with bacon, right?

      I made cauliflower rice a couple of weeks ago and I was surprised at how much I liked it (I don't like cauliflower). I will have to give your potato soup a try next Chelsea, it looks delicious!! 🙂
