Home Made Soup to Keep you Warm in the Fall-Easy Prep

Home Made Soup to Keep you Warm in the Fall – Easy Prep

Home made soup is one of those things that my body craves in the fall, what about you?  There really is just something about it! 

Here are two of my favourites home made soups, that will not only warm your insides, but will keep you energized and ready for the day ahead!  They are both Keto friendly and gluten free.

The first is my all time favourite:

Broccoli, Bacon and Cheddar Soup

I mean who doesn’t like these three ingredients mixed together!  This is a fall fav for my family for sure.

I use a large 6 quart soup pot for all of my soups.

Here are the ingredients

8 cups water

2 tbsp spoon It’s Better Then Bouillion chicken/beef or mushroom stock

2 sticks of celery

1/2 a medium onion chopped

6 pieces of bacon

6 cups of broccoli

1 cup of cheese of your choice (I like extra old cheddar)

1 tsp of butter

2 cups heavy cream

salt

pepper

First thing your going to want to do is get the bacon cooking.  I use scissors to cut it into small pieces before I cook it, it cuts down on the cooking time and the mess!

While that is cooking I prep my vegetables.  I like to soften the onion and celery and will normally put it into the bottom of the pot with about a tsp of butter and cook until tender.

Once that is done I add my broccoli, and the water and bouillon.  Once the bacon is cooked at it and the bacon fat to this mixture as well. 

Season with salt and pepper to taste and let simmer for about 3 hours.

Add the heavy cream and cheese.  I like mine really creamy and will run it through the blender you can also use a hand held if you prefer it less creamy.  You can add a little bit of cheese to your bowl of home made soup as a garnish.

Our next favourite fall soup is Creamy Green Pea

This one just has such a fresh taste!

You will need:

200 grams of sweet peas – you can use fresh or frozen

1 medium onion

2 stalks of celery

2 cups

of bone broth – beef or chicken

1 cup of heavy sour cream

2 cups of heavy cream

1/2 tbs of crushed garlic

smoked paprika seasoning

salt

pepper

heavy sour cream as a garnish

Begin by prepping your vegetables. 

I like to soften the onion and celery and will normally put it into the bottom of the pot with about a tsp of butter and cook until tender.

Next add your peas, water and bouillon and season to taste.

Cook for approximately two hours

I then cool slightly and add the cream and sour cream then blend.

You can use either a hand held blender or a counter top one.  I like the counter top one as I like this home made soup extra creamy.

I really hope you try both of these family favourite home made fall soups!  If you do let me know what you think.

Thanks so much for stopping by!
