Cream of Broccoflower with Omega 3 Seed bread

The other day when I went to Fresh and Easy I found this bread with a ton of different seeds called Omega 3 Seed bread. This was made with whole wheat with flax seeds, sun flower seeds and some other seeds I don't remember. But it looked so good and I got it. So to serve this bread I made the most simplest and yummiest soup ever
Broccoflower
This Broccoflower is just what it sounds and looks like- a cross between Broccoli an cauliflower and I should say it does milds out the strong taste of Broccoli and takes in the yummy taste of Cauliflower. So here is the yummy recipe of the yummy vegetable
