Soup Weather: Free Printable Recipe

It has turned cooler in Paducah, Kentucky this week! With the crisp, cool weather I begin to think about getting out my soup recipes. Cold weather and hot soup just seem to match up in my mind. 

Since it’s been a while since I shared one of my recipes with you, I thought you might like my version of broccoli cheese soup. It is a low carb recipe, easy to fix, and (in my opinion) delicious!

Put on your sweatshirt, make some delicious soup, and be thankful to God for the great variety He gives us in life…weather, colors of leaves, warm homes, and great varieties of foods. Enjoy!!

Low Carb Broccoli Cheese Soup

4 cups broccoli, chopped (I steam a small bag and use this if I don’t have fresh)

1 small onion, diced

2 cups chicken broth

1 tsp. garlic, minced

3 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese

1 cup heavy cream

4 oz. cream cheese, softened

½ stick of butter

  • In a large saucepan over medium heat, stir together chicken stock, onions, broccoli and garlic for about 5 minutes.
  • Once it comes to a low boil, cover and let simmer for 10 minutes.
  • Stir in heavy cream, cream cheese and butter and continue to cook for 3-5 minutes.
  • Stir in cheese until smooth (about 1-2 minutes). Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Garnish with bacon bits, extra shredded cheese, sour cream, or my personal favorite – toasted onions.
  • Serve immediately.

This soup is great as a left-over. It makes 4 servings and contains 7 net carbs per serving. I hope you enjoy it along with the cooler temperatures!

These all look to You, to give them their food in due season.

When You give it to them, they gather it up;

When You open your hand, they are filled with good things.  ~Psalm 104:27-28
