Meet the Cook: Main-meal soups are something I'm always on the lookout for. Since I love cheese and our kids like anything with Mexican flavor, I knew this one would be popular at our house. I've served it with tacos, nachos or a loaf of bread. Our three children are grown, and we've just become proud grandparents. -Susan Salenski, Copemish, Michigan

2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme leaves
6 cups chicken broth
2 (12-ounce) jars roasted red bell peppers preserved in water, drained

PEPPER JACK CHEESE CAULIFLOWER SOUP (QUICK)



Pepper Jack Cheese Cauliflower Soup (Quick) image

I am posting this recipe so I remember it....to me, it's good and quick soup. You can adapt this recipe to many types of soup. In fact, my tomato soup that I make with V8 juice is very similar to this. I use the butter/onion/flour soup base for most of my soups. The seasonings change and, of course the other ingredients as well. This is my first posted recipe. Please let me know if there is anything wrong with it. I don't really measure, so the spices are a guess.

Provided by RN4IttyBits

Categories     Vegetable

Time 30m

Yield 3-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

16 ounces frozen cauliflower
1/4 cup water
1 small onion (diced)
4 tablespoons butter
1/2 teaspoon garlic pepper seasoning
1/2 teaspoon dill weed
1 tablespoon flour
14 -28 ounces chicken broth (Depends on how thick you want your soup)
1/2 lb monterey jack pepper cheese (shredded)
1/3 cup milk

Steps:

  • Put the frozen veggies in a sauce pan with the water and cover on medium to high heat. Let them steam for as long as it takes to get them tender. Stir them around every once in awhile.
  • While they are steaming, saute the onion in the butter with the spices until the onions are tender. Add the flour and saute just long enough to dissolve it. While you may be tempted to cut the butter way down, it makes a gravy that disperses flavor throughout the soup. To me, this is the key to a good soup base.
  • When you think your veggies are done, pour your chicken broth into into your sauce pan with your veggies and bring to a boil.
  • Add your onion/flour mixture to the sauce pan with the veggies and simmer for about 10 minutes.
  • Finally add your cheese and milk. Keep over the heat just until cheese is melted. Make sure not to let your soup even get close to boiling again after the cheese is added otherwise it will break down the cheese.

Tips:

  • For a creamier soup, use heavy cream instead of milk.
  • To make the soup spicier, add more pepper jack cheese or a dash of cayenne pepper.
  • If you don't have pepper jack cheese, you can substitute another type of sharp cheddar cheese.
  • To make the soup ahead of time, cook it according to the recipe and then let it cool completely. Store the soup in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. When you're ready to serve, reheat the soup over medium heat until warmed through.
  • Serve the soup with a side of crusty bread or crackers.

Conclusion:

Creamy pepper jack cheese soup is a delicious and easy-to-make soup that is perfect for a quick and easy meal. It is also a great way to use up leftover pepper jack cheese. This soup is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
