Today we’re having creamy meatball and cauliflower soup. It used to be meatball and potato soup but since we’re low carb I tried it with cauliflower and it’s still just as good.

Fry half an onion and a clove of garlic in oil, add 4cups of water or broth, 18 frozen meatballs and a bag of frozen cauliflower cook for about 20 minutes until cauliflower is soft. Add about 3oz of Mexican cream, a teaspoon of cumin, a handful of fresh cilantro, a third of a can of chipotle pepper sauce, and salt to taste. Cook for another five minutes or so on low and it’s done.

Sometimes if I have the time I will make the meatballs and use fresh cauliflower but in a rush I use frozen and it doesn’t drastically change the taste. It’s my MIL’s recipe and she always made the meatballs and stuffed them with cheese but I don’t enjoy cooking as much as she does. This recipe is for 2 or 3 people.

This can be a little spicy not for anyone who’s used to spice but if you’re not maybe add the chipotle one spoonful at a time and see how spicy you like it.
