Ingredients

• 4 cups (600 g) cauliflower, diced small
• 1 tablespoon (10 g) finely chopped onion
• 2 tablespoons (20 g) finely chopped celery
• 1 tablespoon (7 g) grated carrot
• 3 cups (720 ml) chicken broth
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 teaspoons white vinegar

• 1 1/2 cups (180 g) shredded cheddar cheese
• guar or xanthan (optional).
• 2 slices bacon, cooked and drained
• 1 tablespoon (6 g) minced scallion

Method

1. Put the cauliflower, onion, celery, and carrot in a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan
2. Add the chicken broth, salt, and vinegar; bring up to a simmer and let cook for 30 to 45 minutes
3. Stir in the low-carb or half and-half and then whisk in the cheese a little at a time, giving each addition time to melt before adding more
4. Thicken it a little with guar or xanthan if you think it needs it
5. Top each serving with a little crumbled bacon and minced scallions (though its also wonderful without them!)
