Skinny Baked Potato Soup

I have to start off with saying that this is my favorite soup that I have made this far.  I found the recipe on +Skinnytaste Gina. I made a little bit of change, but her ideas are awesome you need to check them out!  I doubled the recipe so I would have leftovers, and it was such a great idea.  This was definitely one of the easiest potato soups to make, one of the fastest and definitely the best tasting.  I have to say that everyone was hesitant about the cauliflower but NO ONE could taste the difference, so it was better for you as well!

Please feel free to comment I would love to hear feedback!

Ingredients

• 2 large red potatoes washed (I leave the skin on but feel free to peel them)

• 2 tsp of salt (or more or less for taste)
• 1 tsp of pepper (or more for taste)
• 1/2 cup of light sour cream
• 1 cup of shredded sharp cheddar cheese
• 2 tablespoons of onion powder
• 2 tablespoons of garlic powder
• 2 tablespoons of whole wheat flour (I used this to make my soup thicker because I prefer thick soup)

Directions

1. Pierce potatoes all around with fork and microwave for 5 minutes.  Turn potatoes around and microwave for 2 more minutes or until potatoes are tender.  Cool potatoes.
2. Place your cauliflower in a microwave safe dish and cook according to package directions.
3. Once cauliflower is cooked, dice your potatoes and add your cauliflower and potatoes to a large pot.
