An entire book of low carb soups and stews
Low carb soup recipes are my jam! In fact, I love them so much that back in 2013, I wrote an entire Slow Cooker Soups and Stews Ebook. This Keto Bacon Cheeseburger Soup is one of the recipes from that book. I’ve made it so many times on my Instagram, that I felt it was only fair that after all these years, I finally share it here as well.
A lot of low carb and keto soup recipes utilize xanthan gum to thicken the broth, but I prefer not to. This gluten free soup recipe is thickened with the use of cheese and heavy cream. I have always been a fan of cream based low carb soups. Actually, Who am I kidding? I am just a big fan of soup in general.
Converting this recipe for stovetop
One of the most common questions I get on a lot of my slow cooker soup recipes is how to covert them to stovetop, so for this Keto Bacon Cheeseburger Soup recipe, I gave instructions for both. However, I feel like I need to tell you that you should probably make a double batch! It is that good. Every time we make this, there are never any leftovers, no matter how much I make. In fact, I have to make triple batch in order to have some for our weekly meal planning and low carb food prep. It is one of those soup recipes that just gets better and better as the days go by. It also reheats really well!
