Ingredients

16 ounces Coleman Polish Kielbasa Uncured Sausage, fully cooked, sliced ¼-inch thick
2 tablespoons butter
1 cup onion, diced
1 cup celery, chopped
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon dry mustard
3 cups chicken broth
3 cups cauliflower florets, cut into ½” size pieces
1 cup cream
2½ cups sharp Cheddar cheese, shredded, plus more for garnish
¼ teaspoon black pepper plus more to taste
Sea salt to taste
1 tablespoon flour, as needed

Instructions

In a large Dutch oven over medium heat, cook onion and celery in butter until tender, about 5 minutes. Add kielbasa and stir occasionally to start to brown on all sides, about 3 to 4 minutes.

Stir in Worcestershire sauce and dry mustard. Cook for 2 minutes more. Add chicken broth and cauliflower.

Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, for about 10 minutes or until cauliflower is tender.

Stir in cream and allow mixture to simmer again for 2 to 3 minutes. Add cheese and pepper. Cook and stir until cheese is melted.

Taste for seasoning and add a touch of salt if needed. If you want your soup to be slightly thicker, add the flour.

Ladle into soup bowls. Garnish with cheese and pepper, as desired.
