Mom's Curry Carrot Cauliflower Soup

/

This is one of my favorite soups and a Mama Chan-Norris specialty! Whenever I make the trip back to NY to visit family in the winter, this soup is waiting for me as my Welcome Home post-flight meal. It's delicious, comforting, and surely to warm you up in the cold winter months.
