Is cauliflower good for you? That would be a resounding yes.
Cauliflower, a cruciferous vegetable, contains unique plant compounds that are helpful in preventing cancer and heart disease. It’s also low carb and full of healthy fiber.

I don’t use cauliflower often enough in recipes. Your soup sounds wonderful, and easy to make as well. We are vegetarian so I would sub out the bone broth with vegetarian soup stock.
