Slow Cooker Detox Cauliflower Soup

Slow cooker detox cauliflower soup is easy, packed with vegetables & super healing from the inside out. Can we all agree that cauliflower soup is the best?

My slow cooker is becoming my MVP for this summer. I had no clue how insane this summer would be with the kids being home. I thought I was prepare until I realized there is no way to truly be ready. We’ve been out almost everyday and to be completely honest somedays cooking is the last thing I want to do. I’m not big on fast food or eating out. So I’m totally taking advantage of my slow cooker.

We live in Florida. We get rainy days a lot during the summer and I don’t know if I’m the only one but rainy days simply mean soup days.

I love adding beans in recipes. Beans are high in protein, fiber and antioxidants. I have been reading up a lot on plant-base protein. We try to eat vegetarian 3-4 days per week.

This soup is so face-plantingly simple. I can’t get enough. I made it in bulk, froze it and enjoyed it for days. It was great on the first day and even better the next. It is now becoming a weekly staple. Is it normal to crave soup? It is in my house.

Needless to say I’m making this again as soon as I see rain on the forecast. Which in Florida is weekly.

Enjoy!
