Equipment

  • 1 instant pot

Ingredients
  

  • 6 slices bacon chopped
  • ¼ cup brown onion chopped
  • 1 stalk celery chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic crushed
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp pepper
  • 3 cups chicken stock
  • 1 cauliflower cut into florets
  • ¾ cup sour cream
  • 1 ½ cups tasty cheese divided
  • 1 spring onion

Instructions
 

  • Place the chopped bacon in the Instant Pot and turn on the sauté function. Cook the bacon, stirring frequently, until crisp. Remove to a paper towel lined plate, leaving as much of the bacon fat in the pot as possible.
    6 slices bacon
  • Add the onion, celery, and garlic and season with salt and pepper. Cook until softened, about 4 minutes. Turn off the sauté function.
    1/4 cup brown onion, 1 stalk celery, 2 cloves garlic, ½ tsp salt, ½ tsp pepper
  • Add the chicken stock to deglaze the pan, then add the cauliflower. Lock the lid onto the pot and make sure the vent is sealed. Set the manual function on high for 5 minutes (it will take 5 to 10 minutes to come up to pressure).
    3 cups chicken stock, 1 cauliflower
  • When the timer goes off, let the pressure release naturally for 10 minutes before opening the vent. Remove the lid and stir in the sour cream and 2/3 of the grated cheese. Blend with an immersion blender until smooth or transfer to a full size blender or food processor.
    3/4 cup sour cream, 1 1/2 cups tasty cheese
  • Serve the soup topped with the remaining cheese, the bacon, and the spring onion.
    1 spring onion, 1 1/2 cups tasty cheese

Notes

Stove top instructions
If you would prefer to make this on your stove top, follow the instructions for sautéing the vegetables in a large pot over medium heat. Add the broth and cauliflower as instructed and cook for 30 minutes, until the cauliflower is tender. Proceed with the remaining steps, as directed.
