BACON CHEDDAR CAULIFLOWER CHOWDER
Steps:
- Whisk together flour and 1/4 cup chicken broth in a small bowl then set aside. Cook bacon in a dutch oven or large soup pot over medium heat until crisp. Transfer bacon to a paper towel lined dish and remove all but 1 tbsp of grease from the pot. Add minced onion, celery and garlic to the pot then season with salt and pepper and saute until vegetables are tender, about 4-5 minutes. Note: Since I was using a food processor to shred the cauliflower (you can also use a box grated), I used it to mince the other veggies simply by dropping them in and letting it spin. But mincing and grating by hand totally work, too. Add cauliflower to the pot and stir to combine. Add water, cover, and steam cauliflower until tender, stirring a couple times, about 5-7 minutes. Add remaining chicken broth and milk, turn up heat and bring to a boil. Slowly whisk in flour/chicken broth mixture while stirring, then reduce heat and simmer for 3-4 minutes, until chowder has thickened. Remove from heat and stir in 2 cups of the cheddar cheese until smooth, then stir in half the cooked bacon. Taste and adjust salt, pepper, and/or hot sauce. Serve topped with remaining cheese, bacon, and green onions.
