- 4 cups grated Cheddar Cheese
- 4 cups Chicken Broth or vegetable broth for a vegetarian option
- 1 cup Cream Cheese
- 1 head Broccoli cut into small florets
- 1 small Carrot chopped
- 4 tablespoons unsalted Butter
- 2 cloves Garlic minced
- 1 teaspoon Paprika Powder
- 1 teaspoon Turmeric
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black Pepper
Start by melting the butter in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the chopped carrots and broccoli florets, then sauté them for about 3-4 minutes until they begin to soften. Season with paprika, a pinch of salt, and black pepper.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another 1-2 minutes until it becomes fragrant, filling your kitchen with a wonderful aroma.
Pour in the chicken broth (or vegetable broth) and turmeric, bringing the mixture to a gentle simmer.
While the soup is simmering, gradually add the grated cheddar cheese and cream cheese, stirring continuously. This constant stirring helps the cheeses melt smoothly and thickens your soup to a perfect creamy consistency.
Taste the soup and adjust the seasonings if needed to match your preference. Ladle into bowls and serve hot for a comforting and nutritious meal that's surprisingly easy to make!
This comforting Keto Broccoli Cheddar Soup is a delicious and low-carb meal. It's surprisingly easy to make and can be adapted for vegetarians by using vegetable broth.
