I halved the recipe since I'm the only one who likes cauliflower in my family. I sauteed my cabbage first in some sesame oil (about 2 tsp) to give a roasted flavor to it. I also threw in 3 cloves garlic and fresh ginger (1 tbsp) while it was simmering. I left out the blue cheese. It was quite good. - 1/26/09

Your tweaks sound yummy. Because it is easiest for me to use a whole head of cabbage & cauliflower, I just freeze the remaining soup. It lasts several months in the freezer in a good quality container.

I LOVE soups, and this is a new fave. I added too much pepper (I took the "lots!" too literally I guess) & I forgot the roasted red pepper, but this was delicious. I'm looking forward to getting hungry again so I can have some more! p.s. I think it would still be great w/o the blue cheese! - 1/15/09

I have taken to making it without the blue cheese to save money. Also, my daughter likes it better w/o the cheese. Thanks for the review; glad you liked it.

I tried this recipe w/ the following modifications: no red peppers, no cheese (can't have dairy or soy), add basil, fresh onion, fresh garlic & parsley; served up a bowl & put some Earth Balance Natural Buttery Spread in (non-dairy, non soy)...very yummy! Might try w/goat cheese or butternut squash - 6/17/10

Just made this soup and it is great! I added some celery and onion while it was cooking, also added garlic and Mrs. Dash, Forgot to add the blue cheese so had to add after, but could of left it out since it tasted great without. Will definitely make this again. Great for a "low cal" snack . - 4/30/12

Fantastic soup! I don't like blue cheese so I used feta instead (and used 1/2 cup). This soup is very flavorful and surprisingly low on calories, fat, and carbs. I'm having this for lunch this week along with some baked chicken. This will definitely be added to my rotation. Thanks for sharing! - 12/12/11
