How to Make It in 7 Easy Steps
- Prepare all ingredients: Peel and dice the onion, mince the garlic, dice the green pepper into cubes, and prepare the garnishes (dice the avocado, tomato, slice the lime, and prepare the shredded cheese and chopped parsley).
- Brown the beef, onion, and garlic: Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat and add the diced onions, minced garlic, and ground beef. Brown the beef for about 2-3 minutes until the onions are translucent and the beef is starting to get a golden, brownish color.
- Add bell pepper and seasoning: Once the beef is browned, add the diced peppers, season with salt and pepper to taste, and add the taco seasoning. Mix well until combined.
- Add tomato and tomato sauce: Next, add the fresh, diced tomatoes and the tomato sauce. Cook everything for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Pour in liquid ingredients: Pour in the heavy whipping cream (or add softened cream cheese) along with the beef broth and stir well until combined.
- Cook: Cook the soup for about 10 minutes until it begins to thicken. You can also cook it for another 3-5 minutes, stirring constantly, if you want to make it even thicker.
- Garnish and serve: Transfer the soup to a bowl and garnish with diced avocado, lime slices, diced tomatoes, shredded cheese, and chopped parsley.
FAQs
- Can I use cream cheese instead of heavy cream? Yes, but keep in mind that cream cheese tastes differently and has a different texture. If you’re lactose intolerant, you can use non-dairy alternatives like coconut cream.
- How do I make homemade taco seasoning? You can make your own taco seasoning mix with paprika, oregano, chili powder, cumin, and garlic powder.
- Can I freeze the keto taco soup? Yes, but freeze it before adding dairy products like heavy cream or softened cream cheese. To reheat, thaw overnight in the fridge and reheat on the stovetop or in a slow cooker until warmed through.
