Creamy Dairy-Free Cauliflower & White Bean Soup

🍲SOUP LIFE - Saw this #PlantBased Cauliflower and White Bean Soup from @eatingwell and had to make it! The steps were super easy and it tasted delicious! I added a #glutenfree garlic crouton on top - really made it sensational! #PlantBased soups make great meals to help cut back on your meat and dairy consumption (better for the planet 😉). Also, it's so chilly outside these days, who doesn't want to warm up with a nice bowl of soup? Check out the recipe below.

🤓FUN FACT: There is garlic (superfood) in this recipe - which is great for your immune system! 💪
