This creamy, silky soup is going to change your life! And the way you think about cauliflower (it’s not just for dipping into ranch!). Rosemary and white beans are a match made in heaven, and adding roasted cauliflower to the mix is a creative and nutritious way to add more vegetables to your lunch or dinner. I served mine with pan-seared wild cod. You’re missing out if you don’t make this ;)
