Creamy Cauliflower and Asiago Soup

Ingredients

• 3 (14 ounce) cans low-sodium chicken broth
• 1 head cauliflower, cut into 1-inch pieces
• 1/4 cup dry white wine

Bring chicken broth to a boil in a large pot. Cook cauliflower, white wine, and bay leaves in the boiling broth over medium-high heat until cauliflower is tender, 10 to 15 minutes.

Strain cauliflower from broth with a slotted spoon and add to the cheese mixture. Remove bay leaves from stock and discard.

Mash cauliflower and cream cheese mixture with a potato masher until well mixed; season with salt and black pepper.

Stir cauliflower mixture into the broth until smooth. Season with rosemary, thyme, salt, and black pepper.
