Keto Hamburger Soup
This Keto soup is a great way to enjoy all your favorite hamburger flavors and toppings - minus the carbs! Our low carb soup is prepared with ground beef, smoky paprika, cayenne pepper, tomato sauce, beef stock, aromatic garlic and onion and topped with shredded lettuce, gherkins and grated cheddar cheese. This makes a delicious low carb lunch or Keto dinner option.
Can I Use a Different Meat?
We have used ground beef to provide the protein element in our Keto hamburger soup. If preferred, you may swap this for alternative ground meat. You could use pork or turkey or even a combination of meats. Please be sure to adjust cooking times and macros as needed to account for different ingredients used.
Topping Suggestions
We have topped our Keto soup with some classic hamburger fillers and flavors - lettuce, gherkins and cheese. If you would like to try some different toppings, you could use chopped cooked bacon, an alternative cheese, and even a drizzle of low carb hamburger relish if desired. This is a great dish to adapt and experiment with other low carb toppings.

This soup is amazing, I did not use lettuce but I put pickled jalapeño’s in it. Instead of cheese I topped it with sour cream. Yummy

Delicious and Quick but ¼ tsp cayenne pepper would be enough for my palette instead of the 1/2 tsp.

This is delicious! The only thing I didn’t add was the lettuce but other than that I can’t wait to make this again
