Sorry to hear about your MIL. I just made some delicious and smooth
roasted cauliflower soup. It is mixed with an immersion blender to the
texture desired. I don't have an actual recipe but the cauliflower is
roasted with a couple of potatoes and cloves of garlic. Then into a pot
to simmer in chicken broth. Blend it with the immersion blender, add
milk or cream, some cheese if desired and serve. Very hearty comfort food.
