Main Ingredients

  • 1 lb Ground chicken or turkey Can substitute with other ground meats.
  • 1 medium Onion, diced
  • 1 medium Bell pepper, chopped
  • 3 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 1 can Diced tomatoes Canned is easiest.

  • 4 oz Cream cheese Adds creaminess.

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • In a large pot, brown the ground meat over medium heat until fully cooked (165°F/74°C for ground chicken or turkey, 160°F/71°C for beef). Drain excess fat if necessary.
  • Add the diced onion, bell pepper, and garlic. Sauté until the vegetables are tender.
  • Stir in the diced tomatoes, chicken broth, and taco seasoning. Bring to a simmer.
  • Add the cream cheese, stirring until melted and well incorporated.
  • Let the soup simmer for 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
  • Serve hot and garnish with your favorite toppings.

Notes

For added creativity, serve with avocado, shredded cheese, sour cream, or fresh cilantro. Paired with crispy keto tortilla chips or a hearty salad enhances the experience. Store leftovers in an airtight container for 3-4 days, or freeze in freezer-safe containers.
