→ Garnishes

14 - 1/4 cup red onion, finely minced
15 - 1/4 cup dill pickles, brunoise

# How to Make It:

01 - Spoon the soup into your bowls. Sprinkle with diced bacon, pickles, and those tiny bits of red onion. Enjoy right away.
02 - Take the pot off the stove. Pour in your cream, scatter over both kinds of cheese, and mix it up until all the cheese melts and everything's super smooth.
03 - Drop the browned beef back in the pot. Squirt in the Worcestershire and Dijon. Mix well and let it chill on gentle heat for 5 minutes so everything gets together.
04 - Grab your stick blender and blend right in the pot until everything's really smooth and creamy.
05 - Pour in beef stock, scrape any stuck bits, add in tomato and cauliflower, crank up the heat till it bubbles, then drop it to a simmer. Let it cook until the cauliflower's super soft, about 15 minutes.
06 - Toss onion into the bacon grease. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Let it cook on medium until it's soft and golden, usually takes about 10 minutes.
07 - Dump your ground beef into the pot with that bacon fat. Crumble it up and cook until there's no pink left. Scoop beef out with a slotted spoon and set it aside.
08 - Lay bacon in a cool Dutch oven and turn the heat to medium-high. Flip once it's looking crisp. Take it out when it's all crunchy and set on paper towels. Make sure to save the bacon grease.

# Additional Tips:

01 - A stick blender makes this soup extra smooth and you won’t have more stuff to wash.
