Detoxifying Instant Pot Turmeric Cauliflower Soup

There are far too many overpriced ‘detox’ products out there but more often than not, you’re better off sticking with the basics—whole foods, good quality sleep, plenty of water, and a balanced diet that’s rich in nutrients. With this recipe, you’re well on your way. What I like about this instant pot cauliflower soup is that it’s incredibly tasty even without any artificial flavorings. I had gotten used to canned soups, so it took me a while to adjust to home cooking but now, I know how specific ingredients can make a world of a difference. This recipe is a testament to that, and really allows the individual ingredients to shine through.
