Paleo Spicy Mexican Chowder

MEXICAN CHOWDER

ancestral-nutrition.com

  • 6 cups chicken stock
  • 1/2 head of cauliflower, steamed (or boiled in the stock)
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1 red onion, diced
  • 1 large jalapeño, diced
  • 1 yellow pepper, diced
  • 1 potato, diced (white or sweet) (hw: use only sweet if your doing Paleo) 
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp chipotle
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
  1. After your cauliflower is soft, throw it in the Vitamix and puree until smooth.
  2. In another pot, boil the potatoes in water or stock. You can do this in the pot with the other veggies, but I didn’t. I was worried they’d all lose their texture.
  3. Next, melt the butter over medium to medium high heat.
  4. Add the red onion.
  5. Once it has softened a bit, add the diced yellow pepper.
  6. Cook that a bit.
  7. Then add the softened potatoes and the rest of the stock.
  8. Add the spices and the cauliflower.
  9. Let it all simmer and marry, then eat!

  1. A small head of cauliflower equals 1 to 1-1/2 pound of cauliflower, or approximately 1-1/2 cups chopped. One medium head will be
    1-3/4 to 2-1/4 pounds, or 3 cups chopped. One 10-ounce package of frozen cauliflower will equal 2 cups chopped.
