Cauliflower Soup

I got this recipe from my mom who got it from the Taste of Home Cook Book. We had it twice last week because it is soo yummy!


1 head of cauliflower
1 medium carrot, shredded
1/4 c. chopped celery

2-1/2 cups water
2 teaspoons vegetable or chicken bouillon granules
3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
2 cups milk
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 to 1 teaspoon hot pepper sauce, (optional)

In a large bowl, combine the cauliflower, carrot, celery, water and bouillon. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 12-15 minutes or until vegetables are tender (do not drain).
In another large saucepan, melt butter. Stir in the flour, salt and pepper until smooth. Gradually add milk. Bring to a boil over medium heat; cook and stir of 2 minutes or until thickened. Reduce heat. Add cheese; stir until milted. Add hot pepper sauce if desired. Stir into the cauliflower mixture. Yield: 8 servings (about 2 \quarts)
