Cauliflower Watercress Soup

Cold winter nights call for hot soup. This cauliflower watercress soup is healthy and light, with a creamy texture from the cauliflower that's perfect served with a crispy whole grain piece of bread and a drizzle of olive oil on top, yet it's light enough to serve with a sandwich or a first course.
