  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 cup diced onion
  • 1/4 cup flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • cups whole milk
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream

Instructions

  • Start by melting the butter in a large saucepan. Add the onion and cook for roughly ten minutes or until tender and translucent.
  • Whisk in the flour, salt, and pepper until a paste is formed. Slowly stir in the milk, cream, water, and chicken broth. Make sure to stir one in at a time until fully incorporated.
  • Stir in the chopped cauliflower and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer, cover, and cook 15 minutes or until the cauliflower is tender.
  • Using a hand blender, or transferring to a regular blender, blend until your soup is smooth.
  • Return the soup to a boil. Remove from the heat and stir in the mustard and two cheeses. Serve topped with bacon pieces and additional cheese.
