I'm guessing the 2 tsp = boullion? I'm going to try using curry powder. I think that will do the trick. - 4/18/12

I agree with the responders who said it was bland. Something was missing, but I can't put my finger on what it was. There was a slightly bitter taste from the cauliflower. - 2/28/08

I wasn't a big fan, sorry. It seems kind of like there was something missing, it was pretty bland. - 5/9/07

We tried, but just didn't like it at all. The cinammon/cauliflower combo was just not tasty.
And why does it call for 2 teaspoons of broth for a whole pot of soup? - 5/9/07

We added a little heat and it helped, I would recommend a dash of Tabasco. Was a nice new way to get some different veggies into my diet. - 4/19/07

It smelled really good but I didn't care for the taste. My husband liked it though. - 3/26/07

I wouldn't call this soup "delicious". It's pretty bland actually. - 3/17/07

I didn't like the texture at first, so I pureed it after the cauliflower was soft. This made it smooth and creamy. I also added splenda & cinnamon. I liked it much better this way. I also served it with ginger snaps on the side. - 3/16/07
