Jill, if you're going to roast it or broil it (I do both), be sure to cut
it into smallish evenly-sized florets. The result is really good.

Oh, I love cream of broccoli soup! I rarely ever make cream soups...I
would eat too much. :-)

The last cream soup I made was a cream of cauliflower soup with cheddar
cheese. No real recipe, but I cooked the cauliflower in chicken broth,
then pureed about 2/3 of it. Combined the puree with cream and the
shredded cheese, stirring over low heat until melted, then stirred in the
remaining pieces of cauliflower.
