My husband (who does not usually like soup had two servings and even said "great soup!" In my book that makes this a winner. Indeed it is easy to put together - I used one spring onion instead of leeks and soy milk, served it in a bread bowl, and added some freshly cooked bacon on the top for a bit more salty punch! Great way to use up those heads of cauliflower we get in the CSA!

Love it! Easy and fast to make, delicious and healthy. I used only 4 cups of broth as I like my soups on the ticker side, no need for the milk. Even my 14 mo old likes it.

This is a great soup. I have made it a few times, mostly as written, except with vegetable stock. Sometimes I add some garlic during the last few minutes of cooking the leeks. My husband swears he hates cauliflower, but he loves this soup. It makes for a nice meal with some crusty bread. We do like to top with chopped parsley instead of the pretty leaf that's recommended, because we found the parsley adds some nice flavor.

I followed this recipe to a "T" and it turned out bland and tasteless. I even followed advice of another reviewer and added a drizzle of melted butter and a bit of nutmeg and it was still bland and tasteless. I won't make this soup again!

I substituted a yam for the potato and a sweet onion for the leek and added mushrooms. It was delicious!

I've been making this classic for years and the original recipe uses a splash of half and half rather than the low fat milk. When serving the soup, add a drizzle of melted butter and a light sprinkle of nutmeg. This makes all the difference.

This was a little bland hot but I added a bit of cayenne and lemon pepper and chives instead of parsley. Cold it was just like vichyssoise without all the calories. I also skipped the milk. Amazing what cauliflower can do! Good stuff!

So easy and so good! I used vegetable stock instead of chicken stock (since I'm vegetarian, and it turned out fantastic!
