What is Keto?

Keto is short for ketogenic which is a low-carb, high-fat diet. It causes the body to go into a metabolic state called ketosis, which burns fat for energy instead of carbohydrates from food. Weight loss is one of the most popular benefits, but there are studies that show if may also help with diabetes, cancer, epilepsy and Alzheimer’s. If you’re interested in learning more about if it is right for you, to get started or what resources to seek out, this episode featuring two registered dietitians on This Unmillennial Life is a good one to check out. I think this post about the keto diet is really helpful for beginners.

Keto Soup Cookbook

Carolyn’s cookbook is perfect if you are just starting to think about Keto and low-carb or have been following a Keto diet for a while. She starts out with lists of kitchen tools and pantry items you’ll need. Luckily her keto soups and stews are really accessible, so you probably already have everything you need to dive right in. There’s a great section on special Keto substitutions which is really helpful. Like swapping sliced cabbage for noodles, cauliflower rice for rice and turnips for potatoes. Make sure to check it out and here’s a link on amazon. I especially love Chapter 1: All About Broth. Carolyn does an amazing job describing the difference between bone broth, regular broth and stock and provides recipes to make your own, which I highly recommend when making soup. I was really excited to try this Keto Chicken Soup. I’ve used cauliflower rice as a side and an addition to salads, but I’ve never tried it in soup. It was awesome. It added just the right amount of flavor and texture, so you truly don’t miss the rice. It’s ready in just over 30 minutes. I love the gorgeous orangish-red color and subtle flavor the paprika adds and the chunks of chicken thighs are tender and perfect. Let’s just say, this keto soup is surprisingly flavorful! All that and it comes in at less than 5 grams net carbs per serving! 🥳

Expert Tips and Tricks For This Recipe

How to Make the Cauliflower Rice From Scratch

Cut the cauliflower in half and remove as much of the stem and leaves as possible. Then, cut the cauliflower into small florets removing any of the remaining stem. Place the cauliflower florets in a food processor or blender and pulse just until the cauliflower is broken down into small rice sized pieces. If you don’t have a food processor or blender, grate the cauliflower on the large holes of a box grater after cutting in half and removing the stems and leaves. You can also use purchased fresh or frozen cauliflower rice to save time!

Variations To Try

To turn this keto soup recipe into a low-carb chicken noodle soup , just replace the cauliflower rice with low-carb noodles of your choice! I love the idea of adding zucchini noodles! , just replace the cauliflower rice with low-carb noodles of your choice! I love the idea of adding zucchini noodles! Instead of chicken thighs, you can also use chicken breast. We like to keep shredded chicken on hand for an easy protein source. I simply cook it in the Instant Pot with a bit of broth for 20 minutes, then shred it with two forks. Stir it into the soup, and heat through. We added on some parsley for a bit of color, but feel free to omit it if you don’t have any on hand. You can also add a teaspoon of chopped rosemary with the aromatics for more flavor.
