I’ve deemed Fall and Winter Soup Season at our house, which is always the perfect excuse to make this Creamy Cauliflower Mushroom Soup recipe. I love any recipe that calls for sauteed garlic and mushrooms and white wine, and when you add it to a soup, you just can’t go wrong. I contemplated on adding shredded chicken or pancetta bacon to this version, and decided on the bacon as I figured the smokey-like pancetta would round out the soup perfectly. But if you’re not a fan of pork, feel free to go the shredded chicken route, or, just leave out the meat altogether. This recipe doesn’t really need it, I just wanted to do something extra for this version. Be sure to PIN IT and get the recipe below!
