Keto Soups are the perfect crowd-pleaser and meal prep for fall. From rich hearty stews, to lighter fare like chicken soup, soups are a great way to hit your health goals all wrapped into one cozy dish.
Keto Recipes for Fall Soups
As the leaves change colors and the temperatures drop, there's nothing quite like a warm, hearty bowl of delicious soup to embrace the spirit of fall on a cold day.
For those following a ketogenic diet, fall doesn't have to mean sacrificing flavor or staying away from comforting classics to keep net carbs low.
In this blog post, we'll explore the delightful world of keto soups for autumn. From preparation methods to meal prep ideas, and the benefits of low-carb foods, we've got all you need to make your fall cozier and healthier.
No-Fuss Ways To Make Soup
Keto soups can be wonderfully diverse, from creamy to brothy, and loaded with rich, satisfying flavors. Preparing them can be as simple or as intricate as you desire.
A basic keto-friendly soup often involves sautéing simple ingredients and low-carb vegetables like onions, celery, and carrots in keto-friendly fats like butter or olive oil.
Then, add your choice of protein, herbs, spices, and a high-quality bone broth.
For a creamier option, consider incorporating keto-friendly thickeners like xanthan gum or coconut cream.
The slow cooker or instant pot can be your best friends when it comes to easy, hands-off cooking. Experiment with various textures and flavors to keep your soup repertoire exciting.
Keto Soups for Meal Prep
Keto soups are meal prep champions.
Cook a large batch and portion it into individual servings for the week.
When you're pressed for time, your pre-made soup can be a lifesaver. Additionally, consider using soups as flavorful bases for other dishes.
For instance, a keto-friendly chicken and vegetable soup can serve as a versatile base for various meals. Top it with cooked chicken, bacon bits, and avocado for one meal, and add zucchini noodles for a second.
This way, you get more mileage out of a single batch of soup, making meal prep a breeze.
Kitchen Equipment to Make Low-Carb Soup
- Large Pot: to simmer soups over medium heat all day
- Crock Pot: for set-it-and-forget-it soups to come home to after a long day
- InstantPot: for when you need soup in a hurry

Why a Low Carb Diet?
Keto soups are not just about the taste; they're also packed with health benefits.
By being low in carbohydrates and high in healthy fats and protein, these soups help keep your blood sugar levels stable, and your stomach satiated all day.
This can lead to sustained energy throughout the day and a reduced risk of energy crashes.
Furthermore, a low-carb diet has been associated with weight loss, improved heart health, and better blood sugar control.
The variety of low-carb vegetables and lean protein sources in keto soups ensure you're getting a broad spectrum of essential nutrients.
Head here for a full rundown of what to expect on the keto diet, as well as the health benefits, tips, and tricks.
