Delicious cauliflower soup

Last week I made a dynamite spicy pumpkin soup. At the time I was also thinking of making cauliflower soup and adding some jalapeño peppers to spice it up a bit. Of course I’d also add my secret ingredient, viz., SPAM®

Tonight I put together a cauliflower soup with a twist. In addition to the jalapeño pepper and SPAM® I added some celeriac. It was delicious.

I hope you enjoy this soup if you make it. I love cauliflower soup. It’s so comforting in winter. Tonight in Canberra is going to be 0 °C (32 °F)

Do you fart after cauliflower soup? I do

  1. Spam??? Really? I just donated my one and only lonely can of spam to the food bank where I hoped someone would find it and love it. That person wouldn’t be me :).
    PS – What are those pretty purple flowers?

    1. Thank you very much for the comment. If I was Polynesian I’d be a spambassador 🙂 I love the stuff especially all the varieties.
      The flowers are French marigolds, cornflowers and rose petals.
