Cauliflower Soup

This is delicious!!!! Dexter even thought it was really good and he doesn't prefer soups for dinner. My friend gave it to me and it was very general. So there aren't exact measurements. This is what I did, but you can put whatever and however much you want in the soup.

3 C Chicken Broth
1 Head of Cauliflower (As much or little as you like)
1 Small Onion
Green Onions
1-2 Celery Stalks
Carrots (I used baby carrots and probably 10 so maybe one big carrot?)
Garlic
Pepper Jack Cheese (As much or little as you want.)
Butter
Flour
(Sorry I did not measure these at all because I did not know what I was doing and it still tasted good!) Maybe 1-2 Tablespoons and a couple of spoonfuls of flour.

Chop up the cauliflower, onions, and celery. Grate the carrots. Put the chicken broth in a pot on the stove and add all the vegetables and garlic. Bring to a boil and simmer until the vegetables are tender. Once the veggies are soft I put mine in a blender. Then pour it back in the pot. Make a roux with the flour and butter. (Mine was a little thick, but not super thick. When I smelled it, it smelled more like butter than flour.) Pour roux into the pot and stir. Let it thicken a little. Then add shredded pepper jack cheese. Let it melt. Add salt and pepper to taste. Eat with delicious bread or grilled cheese.
