How To Make This Keto Cheddar Broccoli Soup

This crockpot broccoli cheese soup uses a lot of broccoli, so get them ready and handy. To make this, I visit my favorite grocery shop and get bags of broccoli florets (chopped). You can decide to buy heads of broccoli yourself and chop it if you’d prefer that. 

Let’s start the easy broccoli cheddar soup cooking process. Firstly, you need to add the chopped broccoli into a slow cooker, if you do not have one, scroll down to the recommended products section to see my favorite slow cooker.

Next up, you need to add some ingredients to your broccoli, like chicken broth, salt, mustard powder, garlic, onion red pepper flakes, and pepper. Does it seem like a lot? Trust me, it isn’t.

Cover the slow cooker and cook for about 4 hours until the broccoli becomes tender. 

Don’t let your kids see the color after cooking, they might never want to have a taste. The thing is, it looks kinda funny after cooking it for 4 hours, but trust me, it gets better and tastier soon.

The next thing to do is blend! Yup, you can use an immersion blender to blend the broccoli in the slow cooker.

You can also use a traditional blender if you do not have an immersion blender, but I’d always prefer an immersion blender. It is easy to clean and makes less mess.

The next thing to do for your healthy broccoli cheddar soup is to add cheese, lots and lots of cheese, but be careful not to go over the top. 

After adding the cheese, stir until the cheese melts completely. And Voila! You have keto broccoli soup. That was easy right? If you’re wondering about the number of carbs in broccoli cheese soup, it is about 6 grams of carbs.

Can You Freeze Broccoli Cheese Soup?

Sure thing, you can place this delicious and broccoli cheddar soup recipe in the freezer. I think it can stay in your freezer for about 3-6 days without losing its freshness. Whenever you want to eat it, simply microwave it. You can’t enjoy it cold, trust me, I tried it and it was totally wack. 

Also, be sure to use an airtight container when storing your broccoli cheese soup for freezer storage.

Is Keto Broccoli Soup Good For Kids

Yes, It is totally safe for kid’s consumption.

If your kid even agrees to eat this, you should definitely take him or her on a special treat. I think about 85% of kids hate broccoli. But then, there’s cheese in this one, and your kid might agree to have a taste. 

Warning! Make sure you let your kid know that there’s broccoli in the soup, why? They might not forgive you if they find out. 

Final Words

This keto broccoli soup is amazing guys, I loved it, my husband loved it too. Even if you don’t like the taste of broccoli, there’s a 60% chance that you’ll say “Ahh not bad” after having a taste of this soup. 

Although it takes some time to prepare, make sure you pay attention to the timing so you don’t get an overcook broccoli. Thanks for stopping by.

Here’s one of my favorite creamy soups the “keto broccoli soup”. It takes some time to prepare, but the later result is literally to die for. 

Ingredients

  • 1 teaspoon of salt.

  • 4 cups of grated cheddar.

  • ¼ teaspoon of red pepper flakes.

  • 1 ½ cups of Monterey jack (grated).

  • 2 cups of heavy cream.

  • ½ diced onion.

  • 4 cups of chicken broth.

  • 1 teaspoon of pepper.

  • 1 teaspoon of ground mustard.

  • 32 ounces of broccoli florets.

  • 2 cloves of minced garlic.

Directions

  • In a 6-quart slow cooker, add the onion, broccoli, ground mustard, salt, cream, red pepper flakes, broth, garlic, chicken and pepper. 
  • Cover the slow cooker and allow it to cook for 4 hours until the broccoli becomes soft. 
  • Using an immersion blender, blend the soup thoroughly until it becomes smooth. If you do not have an immersion blender, you can move the soup from the slow cooker into a traditional blender.
