When dinner time rolls around, the stress is gone from figuring out what to make for dinner when I am able to throw dinner in the crockpot in the morning.

When you are making this cauliflower and cheese soup recipe there is some planning that you can do the day before so it is quicker to get everything into the crockpot. I personally like to plan a meal the night before that has whole roasted cauliflower as a side dish. Then I make a double batch of the roasted cauliflower, serve part for dinner and then put the other in a container in the fridge to use the next day when making this cauliflower and cheese soup recipe.

When you are making this slow cooker cauliflower soup you can use homemade chicken stock or store bought. Whichever your preference is.
