  Cauliflower Chowder
Since we’ve relocated out to the Bay Area, I’ve been making much of comfortable soups to get us by these cold nights. But rather of creating my regular carb-loaded chowders that I love so much, I tried anything a bit of bit lighter and extra hearty.



 After all, spring is officially here, sweater season is slowly coming to an end, and bikini season can be right right here earlier than you understand it.

Now I’ll be sincere – being the carboholic that I am, I was very skeptical about utilizing cauliflower in vicinity of potatoes, but boy, was I in for a treat.


The cauliflower was an very exceptional low-carb substitute, and it’s actually such a right method to sneak in a few nice ol’ veggies for these choosy eaters. And to stability out all that veggie goodness, I simply had so as to feature a few crisp bacon bits simply due to the fact on the give up of the day, bacon simply makes everything 10000x instances better. Either way, that is one cozy, hearty soup that the complete household will gobble up!
