Keto Taco Soup
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef
- 2 tbsp beef juices
- 1 medium onion
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 medium bell pepper
- 1 small jalapeño
- 14.5 oz strained tomatoes
- 2 medium poblano peppers
- 6 cups beef broth
- 8 oz cream cheese
- 2 tbsp lime juice
- 1 avocado avocado cubed
- 1/2 cup cotija cheese
- 2 tbsp scallions
- 2 tbsp cilantro
Instructions
- Sauté ground beef on high heat in a large soup pot with taco seasoning, cumin, and seasoned salt, stirring to prevent anything from sticking, until brown.
- Roast the peppers while you're cooking the meat, turning them occasionally to ensure all sides are totally blackened.
- Once the meat is mostly cooked through (about 5 minutes), remove from the pot, strain the juices into a separate bowl, and set the beef aside.
- Turn the heat down to medium, pour 2 tablespoons of the beef juices back into the pot, and add onions, garlic, bell pepper, and jalapeño.
- Sauté until softened (about 3 minutes).
- Add strained tomatoes and stir to incorporate.
- Clean the skin off of the peppers, loosely chop them (careful to remove seeds if you're sensitive to spice), and add them to the pot.
- Add beef broth, the block of cream cheese, and lime juice, stirring to break up the cream cheese and allow it to totally melt into the soup.
- Taste and add additional salt or pepper if needed.
- Serve piping hot, each bowl topped with half of a cubed avocado, 2 tablespoons of cotija cheese, scallions, and cilantro.
