Keto-Friendly Tips

• Cheese boost: Stir in cream cheese or heavy cream for a creamier soup

• Extra veggies: Add zucchini or cauliflower rice for volume without carbs

• Spicy option: Add diced jalapeño or red pepper flakes

• Meal prep: Keeps well in the fridge for 3–4 days and freezes beautifully

If you want, I can also make a one-pot Instant Pot version that’s ready in under 30 minutes and just as keto-friendly.
