Description

Easy, low-carb, nutrient packed soup with lots of flavor.

Ingredients
    Spice Mix
  • 1 tbsp chili powder
  • 1 tbsp ground cumin
  • 2 tsp onion powder
  • 2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp paprika (smoked for extra depth)
  • 1/2 tsp dried oregano
    •  Soup
  • 1.5 pounds Ground beef
  • 3 cups bone broth
  • 1/2 medium onion, chopped
  • 1 can tomato sauce (15 oz)
  • 1 can diced canned tomatoes (14.5 oz)
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
    • Optional
  • 2 cups riced cauliflower (Drained)
  • 1 green bell pepper
  • 1 can green chiles
  • 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper (for a bit of spice)
Instructions

  1. Set your Crockpot/Instant Pot to Sauté setting (or use your stovetop skillet if your slow cooker doesn't have this setting) and brown the ground beef, breaking it up with a spoon. Add chopped onion, minced garlic and a pinch of salt while browning to enhance flavor. Continue cooking until the beef is fully browned and onion is softened.

  2. Change the Instant Pot setting from "Sauté" to "Slow Cook."

  3. Add bone broth, diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, chili powder, ground cumin, onion powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and dried oregano to the slow cooker. Stir to combine.
  4. If using riced cauliflower, add it to the slow cooker at this time.
  5. Cover and cook on low for 4-6 hours or on high for 3–4 hours.
  6. After cooking, taste the soup and adjust seasonings as needed, adding more salt, pepper, or spices to taste.
  7. Serve hot, topped with your choice of shredded cheese, sour cream, avocado slices, fresh cilantro, sliced jalapeños, and lime wedges for extra flavor.
