Introduction

I love WW cheeseburger soup! However, a low fat diet was just not working for me. I decided to try a low carb diet and discovered many people were losing weight on the Keto Diet. This recipe is a modified version of the popular WW recipe, only for those trying the Keto diet instead of the low fat diet. I love WW cheeseburger soup!

Tips

If you prefer a thicker soup broth, you can add 2 teaspoons of corn starch. This means you're adding 7 grams of carbohydrates per teaspoon added. If you're on Keto, every carb is counted, so you may wish to skip this step. This is also important if you are diabetic and trying a reduced sugar diet to reduce your insulin needs.


Directions

In a large skillet, brown ground beef. While your beef is browning, chop cauliflower, peppers, and celery. These can be as large or small as you like. (I like my veggies a little chunky, so I stick with about 1 florets of cauliflower, smaller diced peppers and celery.) I Set your browned beef aside in a colander to drain excess fat drippings. Using the same skillet, add a diced onions and cook till translucent. Add a tablespoon of olive oil if the beef grease isn't enough to keep your onions from sticking to the pan. Before removing the onions, add your garlic and cook for an additional 3 minutes to toast the garlic and onions. In the meantime, add your chicken broth to a large crockpot. Add the ground beef, cooked onions and garlic, and add chopped vegetables. Pour heavy whipping cream and water to your skillet. Using a medium heat, bring to a slow boil and whisk all the brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Reduce your heat to low and add cream cheese, sour cream and grated sharp cheddar. Stir the creamy mixture continuously to avoid sticky or burning. Cheese melted at high temps will clump and curdle and there is no recovering from it, so keep the flame low. Add the cream mixture to the crock pot and stir well. Set your crock pot to a low heat for 4-6 hours. The soup is ready when the veggies are at mushy level that you prefer. I like mine soft, so I wait the 6 hours.
