Slow-Cooker Creamy Cauliflower Soup image

I love indulgent cream soups but not the fat that goes along with them. In this healthier version, the soup's velvety texture makes it feel rich and the spicy kick warms you up in a flash. -Teri Rasey, Cadillac, Michigan

I'm a vegan, so I made this soup without the cheese and cream. It was still delicious, and I loved the light and healthy flavor.

I'm not a big fan of cauliflower, but this soup was surprisingly good. The cheese and cream mellowed out the cauliflower flavor, and the soup was very comforting.
