Been sick this week thanks to getting a flu vaccine last week. I find that ironic that you go get something to prevent you from getting an illness/virus/cold/sickness/whatever you call it and end up getting sick because of it. Still I'm not sure that this has happened on a yearly basis so can't complain too much. With that being said there's two go to items in my mind when I'm sick- orange juice and soup. Went pretty standard store bought cans of soups which were okay. While they're very convenient they tend to be overloaded with salt. That being said nothing beats a homemade soup.
During my "hey fattie how about we get healthy" kickstart a couple years ago, I roamed the internet for various healthier options. One of the items I found for the colder and or sick times was this 5 ingredient Cauliflower soup on Skinnytaste.com:
Dad's Creamy Cauliflower Soup
Extremely easy to make, cheap on the wallet, low calorie, and pretty tasty. Can't go wrong with that. Unless you hate cauliflower like some folks I know but shall not be named...who apparently loves to go on cruises...BUT I DIGRESS.

| Cauliflower Ain't nothing wrong with that |
 |
| Butter + Flour = Roux |
 |
| 4 cups of on-sale Chicken Broth |
 |
| Sweet Onions are to Karen as Cauliflower is to mystery person |
 |
| All mixed in getting the hot tubbing in |
 |
| Use of Kitchen Gadets= FUN TIMES |
 |
| Finished Delicious Product |
Anyway this soup is super easy and as Karen likes to alter her order at restaurants, I had two alterations based on not being big on salt and pepper. I added Adobo and Sazon seasoning. I'm fairly certain I've glorified those two items in previous posts. Absolutely brings out more flavor in anything.

| Not brings the flavor but also adds some color |
So yeah if you're in the mood for a quick and easy soup- I highly recommend this soup...outside of that who shall not be named that is not Voldemort. Definitely one of those meals that helped me through weight loss and sick times.
