Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 head Cauliflower
- 8 slices Bacon
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 4 cups Chicken broth
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 4 ounces Cream cheese
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 0.5 cup Green onions, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Begin by cutting the cauliflower into florets and wash thoroughly. Set aside.
In a large pot, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon from the pot and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Once cooled, crumble into small pieces.
Discard excess bacon grease, leaving about 1 tablespoon in the pot. Add unsalted butter to the pot and melt over medium heat.
Mince the garlic cloves and add them to the melted butter. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the cauliflower florets to the pot. Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and cover the pot. Cook for about 15 minutes or until the cauliflower is tender.
Using an immersion blender, puree the cauliflower mixture in the pot until smooth. Alternatively, carefully transfer the mixture to a blender and blend until smooth, then return to the pot.
Stir in the heavy cream and cream cheese until well combined. Continue heating on low until the cream cheese is fully melted and integrated into the soup.
Add the shredded cheddar cheese, salt, and black pepper to the soup. Stir until the cheese is melted and the soup is creamy.
Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with crumbled bacon and chopped green onions.
Serve hot and enjoy your delicious Keto Loaded 'Potato' Soup!
