“If you prefer chunky soup, skip the blender step and stir the cheese and cream into the slow cooker mixture, then heat on high until the cheese is melted.” —Sheryl Punter, Woodstock, Ontario

This recipe was great. When I made it, I didn't realize I had forgotten the half and half until my family was several bites into the meal. We all agreed after adding the cream that it was good both ways. As an extra kick, I think I'll spice it up a little with some red hot sauce next time. My mother found this recipe so appetizing that she requested it to add to her own collection.

This soup was hearty, but lacked flavor. It just seemed like it needed something else to give it more taste. At this point, I don't plan to make it again.

My mother made this recipe some years ago and it was fantatic. She passed away and I was trying to dig up some of these old recipes - I am so delighted to find it again and can't wait to make it for my family.

Using a cup of nonfat yogurt and a cup of skim milk instead of the half and half gave the soup a tangy taste. We love it!

This soup was very bland tasted like it was missing...something...we added a tiny drop of hot sauce to give it a little kick and it helped the recipe a TON.

This soup was very bland - it would be much better with some other spices or flavors

Tastes a lot like cauliflower with cheese sauce. DELICIOUS anytime. So creamy and smooth!
