[[Pork]]\\ 
Prep Time: 20 minutes\\ 
Cook Time: 35 minutes\\ 
Serves: 5\\ 

Ingredients
  * 4 slices bacon (diced)
  * 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  * 3 cloves garlic (minced)
  * 1 onion (diced)
  * 2 celery ribs (diced)

  - Whisk in flour until lightly browned, about 1 minute.
  - Stir in chicken broth and milk, and cook, stirring frequently, until slightly thickened, about 3-4 minutes.
  - Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer until cauliflower are tender, about 12-15 minutes; season with salt and pepper, to taste.
  - Puree with an immersion blender until desired consistency is reached.
  - Serve immediately, garnished with bacon and parsley, if desired.
