Recipe
Simple Cauliflower Soup
Rich in fibre, cauliflower is also a member of the Brassica family. Like cabbage, Brussels sprouts and broccoli it contains indole-3-carbinol which when digested in the body forms diindolylmethane, a substance useful in protecting against breast, uterine and colorectal cancer.
Like broccoli, it also contains the nutrient choline essential for brain development and the production of neurotransmitters necessary for a healthy nervous system. A diet low in choline may result in earlier dementia or even Alzheimers.
This soup, while rich and creamy contains no dairy, but rather heart healthy olive oil and gut-healthy garlic with their additional excellent antioxidants.
