I had some leftover mashed potatoes from the night before and decided to make a soup with them.

So I took those leftover mashed potatoes and mixed it with steamed cauliflower, onions, vegetable broth, and grated Parmesan cheese. 

And this potato-cauliflower soup was born!

  1. What a great way to use left overs! This soup looks perfect for a fallish day. Thank you!

  2. Hey Anna & Liz! This soup looks great and I love that you used leftover mashed potatoes. I never know what to do with those, as they never taste the same the next night unless you slather them in gravy that is. Cauliflower soup is one of our favorite soups so I'm sure with the addition of mashed potatoes, it would be even better. xoxo, Jackie

  3. Anyone who is able to take something as mundane sounding as cauliflower and potatoes and put them together in a soup that looks this delicious, beautiful, and appetizing, is in possession of nothing less than pure talent. Great job with this post; I love it!

    1. Thanks Tricia. My husband is always skeptical when I am experimenting with food, especially when its for dinner; but he absolutely LOVED this one, and that's not always the case in my house. I hope your family will enjoy it as much. ๐Ÿ™‚
