I made this for PAC Fall 2008. I wanted to make this because DH and I aren't cauliflower lovers and I'm trying to add it to our menu because DD likes it. This was a great way to use it. The cauliflower wasn't to much for us with the potato and swiss cheese. I used fat free half and half and it was fine. Because I was a coward I cut the recipe in half. I still had a good amount of soup and what was left over reheated well. This was also easy to throw together making it a great option for a weeknight supper. Thanks Sarah for a painless way to eat cauliflower!
