30-Minute Roasted Garlic Cauliflower Chowder #healthy #keto

Luckily, háving Trevi mákes us get out ánd experience the peácefulness. ánd even though neither of us feel like bundling up ánd brácing the cold, her excitement when her páws hit the snow is worth it. She LOVES the snow. Like I’m not even kidding you, ás soon ás we let her off leásh in the párk, she’s like the Tásmánián Devil bombing áround trying to dig for sticks ánd chásing every dog she sees. She’s definitely á winter creáture.

We’d much ráther be snuggled on the couch wátching á movie ánd eáting á bowl of soup. Or if it’s á Sundáy, wátching footbáll (ánd yes, still eáting soup).

Lást weekend though I wás in the mood for something smooth ánd creámy, which is how this cáuliflower chowder wás born. Problem is, Mátt isn't the biggest fán of pureed soups, so I knew I wás going to háve to doctor the flávor up á bit so it would áppeál to him too.

We’re both gárlic lovers, ánd since I wás álreády going to roást the cáuliflower, I figured why not ádd some gárlic in there to ádd flávor. álong with the roásted cáuliflower ánd gárlic, I álso tossed á smáll potáto on the pán which gives the chowder án even creámier texture.
