Ingredients to make cheesy cauliflower soup

You will find the ingredient amounts below in the printable recipe card.

• chicken broth
• fresh vegetables: cauliflower, celery, onion, a carrot
• spices and seasonings: minced garlic, salt, ground black pepper
• shredded cheese: Monterrey Jack Cheese
• soup thickeners: heavy whipping cream, cornstarch and cold water

Directions to make the soup

I made this soup in a 4-quart crock pot but you can use a 6 or 8 quart. If using the larger size slow cooker it ay cook faster.

Step 1: Pour the chicken stock into the slow cooker. Add the cauliflower florets, sliced celery, diced onion and sliced carrots. You can increase the amount of carrots if you like a chunkier soup.

Step 2: Season the broth with the minced garlic, salt and ground black pepper.

Stir the ingredients with a large wooden spoon. Place the lid on the crock pot and slow cook for 4 hours on high or 6 to 8 hours on low until the cauliflower is tender.

Step 3: Once the cauliflower is tender add the shredded Monterey jack cheese and the whipping cream to the soup. Mix well, recover and continue to cook until the cheese has melted, about 30 minutes.

Step 4: After the cheese melts mix the cornstarch with the cold water until dissolved. Add it to the crock pot and stir. Recover and cook for another 30 minutes as the soup thickens. Serve once the soup is thick.
