cauliflower and kale chowder




 All 6  of the orange cauliflowers matured at once (seemingly overnight!) and with a LOT of kale in the yarden, it was necessary to google kale + cauliflower and was happily surprised to  find a plethora of recipes that incorporate both veggies!


 I decided on kale  and cauliflower kale chowder from Tomato boots: http://www.tomatoboots.co/cauliflower-kale-chowder/



I had some homemade broth in the freezer ( I try to always have it in there just for this reason!) I added potatoes to thicken the chowder instead of using flour, and put the cauliflower in at the end with the kale as it cooks so quickly.  Served with some lime, green onion, cornchips and cheese, it is delicious!




I really love the orange colour of these 'Sunset' cauliflowers - seeds were purchased through West Coast Seeds: https://www.westcoastseeds.com/shop/vegetable-seeds/cauliflower-seeds/coloured-cauliflower-seeds/sunset-cauliflower-seeds/
