Instructions:

1. Prepare the Cauliflower: Cut the cauliflower into florets and place them in a large pot. Add enough cold water to cover the cauliflower. Optionally, you can add onion soup mix for extra flavor.

2. Cook the Cauliflower: Bring the pot to a boil, then reduce the heat to simmer. Cook until the cauliflower is tender, about 10 minutes.

3. Make the White Sauce: While the cauliflower is cooking, melt butter in a microwave-proof bowl. Stir in the flour until well combined to make a roux. Gradually add milk, stirring constantly, until the mixture is smooth and thickened.

4. Blend the Cauliflower: Once the cauliflower is soft, transfer it to a blender or use an immersion blender directly in the pot. Puree the cauliflower until smooth, incorporating any cooking liquid.

5. Combine and Melt Cheese: Return the pureed cauliflower to the stock pot. Add the prepared white sauce and stir to combine. Gradually add the shredded Monterey Jack pepper cheese and sharp cheddar cheese, stirring until melted and fully incorporated into the soup.

6. Season to Taste: Add paprika, curry powder, salt, and pepper to taste. Adjust the consistency of the soup by adding more water or milk if desired. Simmer for an additional 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

7. Serve: Ladle the creamy cheesy cauliflower soup into bowls and garnish with a sprinkle of additional shredded cheese if desired. Serve hot, accompanied by a fresh green salad for a complete meal.

This recipe not only offers warmth and comfort but also packs a punch with its cheesy goodness and subtle spice from the Monterey Jack pepper cheese and curry powder. It’s a versatile dish that can be enjoyed as a light lunch or a satisfying snack, perfect for cold winter days or any time you’re craving something hearty yet easy to prepare. The creamy texture and robust flavors make it a favorite among those who appreciate delicious, homemade soups.
