Juice from ½ of a fresh Lemon

SOUP:  Add a little water to a medium sauce pan over medium heat. Stir in the garlic and chili powder; saute stirring occasionally.

Add water and bring to a boil, then lower the heat and let it simmer until the vegetables are softened, about 20 minutes. Use a hand blender to puree the soup. Stir in the lemon juice, thyme and pepper. If the soup is too thick, add a little more water. Taste and adjust seasoning.

CAULIFLOWER GARNISH:  Combine ½ cup of remaining cauliflower florets, unflavored non-stick spray and ¼ teaspoon of curry powder in a mixing bowl. Pour the contents on a baking sheet and roast the curried cauliflower mixture at 350 degrees for 15 minutes.
