Different ways to change up this recipe:
- This soup is great as a sauce for “curry” chicken and rice bowls. Heat it up in a large skillet and add cooked, diced chicken then served over rice. It’s delicious!
- Since it’s zero points, it would be delicious when paired with toasted naan bread and a side salad.
- Add in a handful of frozen peas or carrots (or a mixture!) after blending for color, texture, and flavor.
- Bulk it up without the rice by adding shredded rotisserie chicken after the soup is blended. If you want to keep it vegan, add diced tofu at the end.
- This is a great recipe to use up any leftover veggies in your fridge, as long as you keep cauliflower the base vegetable. Parsnips, broccoli, and carrots all blend up well. If it’s something like beans or peas, add it at the end to avoid weird skins and chunky bits.
Tips and Tricks for Making Curry Cauliflower Soup:
- Make this ahead of time for easy weeknight dinners. As it sits overnight, the flavors come together even more.
- You can use all broth instead of broth and water for more flavor.
- Curry Cauliflower Soup freezes well. You can freeze it in a silicone muffin cup and use those individual cup portions as a “sauce” to add to a meat. Or freeze it in ziploc bags for thawing ease.

Hi there!
I love your site. Your recipes are amazing! I recently tried the creamy curry cauliflower soup. It was so watery. Is there anyway you can put the amount of cauliflower in cups because I think that my head of cauliflower was too small. Thanks! Keep up the amazing work! Much love
Hi thanks for your kind words, sorry the soup was watery, yeah I guess some cauliflower heads can be small, mine was average size, I did not weigh out the cup portions, but probably about 6 cups once it was cut up
I have made the apple cinamon muffins several times now. Hubby and I love them!
Trying the cauliflower soup next week! Thanks for the great recipes!!
You are very welcome Carrie, so glad you both enjoyed the muffins and hope you enjoy the soup
