Low Carb Soup Recipes – 5 Best Low-Carb Keto friendly soups that are delicious and healthy.

Low Carb Soup Recipes

These 5 Low Carb Soup Recipes are all made with simple ingredients that are keto diet friendly and create the perfect comfort food meal, especially on a cold day. 

I’ve made these all on the stove top, but you can feel free to use the same suggested ingredients and throw everything into a slow cooker instead, following your manufacturers instructions for cooking temperature and length of time for soups. 

1. Keto Bone Broth

This Keto Bone Broth or keto chicken soup recipe is a great way to either use as a base for another hearty soup or to enjoy as a nourishing chicken broth on it’s own to enjoy all of the incredible health benefits. 

You can even add in some zucchini noodles to create a tender chicken noodle soup that’s ketogenic diet friendly and that the entire family will enjoy. 

To make the homemade chicken stock, brown onion, garlic and chicken in a large pot, you can use any piece of chicken you like, or even leftover bones so that nothing from a roast chicken meal goes to waste. Ideally including plenty of pieces with bones and skin, with pieces like chicken breasts not adding in the same nutrition as fatty pieces like thighs, legs or wings.

Add in salt, pepper and any other seasoning you like, then pour over water, stock or broth to cover. I like to also pour over a spoon of apple cider vinegar, to help the nutrients become released from the bones.

Simmer for 2-3 hours and then serve, or allow to cool to room temperature, place in the fridge and consume the next day for added flavor and nutritional benefits. 

2. Broccoli Cheese Soup

Enjoy this Keto Broccoli Cheese Soup as a hearty lunch, speedy dinner or a warming starter to a meal.

The broccoli cheddar soup is easy, creamy and of course – super cheesy. You can top your soup with any cheese you like. Lately I’ve been fond of the natural saltiness that parmesan cheese adds to the simple meal.

To make the easy low carb soup recipe, heat coconut oil, olive oil or butter in a large saucepan then add in onion and garlic until browned, add in chopped broccoli florets, salt and black pepper and then almond milk and heavy cream to create a luxuriously creamy soup, without the need for any low-carb thickeners.

The comforting soup is simmered away until the broccoli has softened to be easily mashable, then you can either serve the soup as it is, mash with a potato masher or blend with a stick blender.

You can add in as much cheddar cheese as you’d like, some just before taking the soup off the boil and more when serving to create the ultimate cheesy broccoli soup that’s full of healthy fats. 

3. Keto Zucchini Soup

This creamy keto zucchini soup is a budget friendly soup option to make when zucchini are in season, in abundance and cheap.

You can adapt your soup recipe to include a number of creamy ingredients that are low in net carbs cream cheese, sour cream, coconut milk or Greek yogurt, depending on what you have in your kitchen or what’s easy to find at your local grocery store.

4. Cauliflower Soup

This easy cauliflower soup includes the great addition of blue cheese, which perfectly balanced the earthy flavor of the cauliflower in the flavorful soup. 

To make this healthy soup, chopped cauliflower florets are cooked along with plenty of chopped onion and garlic until starting to soften, then stock, broth or water is poured over to cover and simmered until the vegetables are soft and ready to blend.

Once blended, pour heavy cream and almond milk into the soup and cook until bubbling once again. Serve out into bowls, crumbling blue cheese over a big bowl of soup for added flavor. 

5. Vegetable Soup

This creamy vegetable soup combines together a selection of low carb vegetables to create a wonderfully nutritious, hearty soup.

You can adapt the simply soup recipe to include your choice of vegetables. In this instance I included a healthy combination of leek, zucchini, broccoli and brussels sprouts, making it a great way to get a huge selection of vegetables in yours and any picky eaters diets.
