Ingredients

    2 russet potatoes, washed and dried
    1 small head of cauliflower, stem removed cut into florets
    1 1/2 cups fat free chicken broth
    1 1/2 cups 1% reduced-fat milk
    salt and freshly cracked black pepper
    1/2 cup light sour cream
    10 tbsp reduced-fat shredded sharp cheddar cheese
    6 tbsp chopped chives, divided

Directions

Pierce potatoes with a fork; microwave on high for 5 minutes turn over and microwave another 3 - 5 minutes, until tender. Or if you prefer to use your oven, bake at 400° for 1 hour or until tender. Cool. Peel potatoes.

Meanwhile, steam cauliflower with water in a large covered pot until tender. Drain and return to pot. On medium heat, add chicken broth, milk, potatoes and bring to a boil. Use an immersion blender to puree until smooth. Add sour cream, half the chives, salt and pepper and cook on low another 5-10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

(Note: I added 1 small onion and 1 red pepper, minced and sauteed, at the end for color and flavor. You can cook it separately and add, or start it in the pan with a little oil before you add other ingredients)

Remove from heat. Ladle 1 cup soup into each bowl. Top each serving with 2 tbsp cheese, and remaining chives.
