Put on your scarf and mittens.  It is cold outside!  There is snow on the ground and its going to 10° tonight.  Which means there is a snow emergency here in Cincinnati.  No, I am not joking Cincinnatian’s don’t cope well when it snows.  My family in Cleveland always shakes their head at how their southern neighbors freak at the thought of snow on the drive into work.  They don’t bat an eyelash unless it is over 10′.

No matter how much snow you have it is day’s like these that we all want a delicious bowl of chowder to warm us up.  My Paleo Cauliflower Chicken Chowder is just what you need.  Loaded with so many delicious healthy flavors.  I love it because that it is fast and easy. Using the meat from a rotisserie chicken saves me time, too. And don’t let the addition of the cauliflower scare you—it is very neutral in flavor and adds so much nutritional fiber and substance to this chowder.
