What a perfect way to warm up on this cold winter day then enjoying a big bowl of Cheddar Broccoli Soup. It really wasn’t hard to transform this traditional comfort food into a tasty Keto bowl of heaven! Let me show you how I made this Keto Cheddar Broccoli Soup!
Making this yummy comfort food!
In a large pot, melt the butter and sauté the garlic until tender. Be careful not to burn the garlic. You don’t want bitter garlic in this soup. You want the garlic to be bright and flavorful!
Next add the broccoli, bacon and chicken broth into the pot and bring to a boil and reduce to simmer for about 10 minutes or until the broccoli is tender.
Add the cream and cheese. Use an emulsion blender and blend the soup for about 30 seconds to make the soup creamier. If you do not have a hand held emulsion blender, I would suggest you look into getting one. They are Super Handy (see what I did there….handy…LoL) Check out THIS emulsion blender. Don’t go too crazy with the blender though. You don’t want to take away all the florets of the broccoli. You will still want some pieces of the broccoli for some body in the soup. Simmer until you get the desired thickness. (About 20 minutes) Salt and pepper to taste and enjoy!
If you want to try something different, you should try to replace the broccoli with spinach or lambs quarter. Don’t know what lambs quarter is, check out this article!
