Anxiety Eating Antidote: Spicy Cauliflower and Potato Soup

Anxiety Eating Antidote: Spicy Cauliflower and Potato Soup

I bought a cauliflower recently with good intentions. I’ve been doing a little a lot of anxiety eating lately as I sit here in California in Covid19 lockdown. My scale tells me I need to up my nutrition game. I know cruciferous vegetables are super foods. I like cauliflower. I was confident that I could find a unique recipe.

But then I got buried in the possibilities. Whole roasted cauliflower? Ottolenghi’s amazing cauliflower cake? Indian Aloo Gobi? Stir fried Cauliflower Rice? The possibilities were endless and I was like a deer in the headlights–stalled by too many choices. Then, the idea of a creamy and spicy cauliflower soup beckoned. Soup always calms me and feeds both my body and my soul.

And why not a creamy cauliflower soup? Doesn’t the healthy cauliflower compensate for the cream part? Sure it does.

This simple little soup has it all–spice, creaminess, and lots of cauliflower. It was love at first bite (err…slurp).

Here is the recipe.
