Cauliflower White Cheddar Soup

I received a pamphlet from Kitchen Basics Stock called Healthy Cooking with Stock at the Taste of Home Cooking School recently. I hope to try this recipe soon as the weather gets cooler. DH loves cauliflower and white cheddar, so it seems like it will be a hit. Let me know how you like it if you try it before me!
