Print Recipe

A creamy, rich Keto Vegetable Soup loaded with smoky bacon, low-carb vegetables, and a flavorful broth. Perfect for the keto diet and quick enough for a weeknight meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 slices bacon, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons butter (or bacon grease)
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 medium zucchinis, diced
  • 1 cup cauliflower florets
  • 2 stalks celery, thinly sliced
  • 2 cups fresh spinach, roughly chopped
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Heat a large soup pot over medium heat. Cook chopped bacon until crispy. Remove bacon with a slotted spoon and set aside, leaving grease in the pot.
  2. Add butter to the pot. Sauté onion for 2-3 minutes until soft. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute.
  3. Pour in chicken broth, then stir in heavy cream, thyme, salt, and pepper. Bring to a simmer.
  4. Add zucchini, cauliflower, and celery. Simmer for 15 minutes or until veggies are tender.
  5. Stir in spinach and let it wilt, about 2 minutes. Add cooked bacon back to the soup, reserving some for garnish.
  6. Serve hot, garnished with Parmesan cheese, parsley, or red pepper flakes if desired.

 

Notes

  • For extra richness, add shredded cheese to the soup.
  • Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 4 days.
  • To freeze, leave out the cream and add it when reheating to prevent separation.
