Spicy Keto Tomato Soup with Cream Cheese

11 ratings

This Keto tomato soup provides the perfect balance of creamy, spicy, and savory flavors. It is super easy to prepare and is ideal for lunch or dinner. This low-carb soup recipe uses cream cheese instead of heavy cream, making it rich and tangy. Give this recipe a try, and let us know what you think.

How “spicy” is this spicy tomato soup?

This soup isn’t too hot to handle; it is mildly spicy. The heat adds a nice kick to this soup, but you can add more crushed red pepper if you like super spicy food.

Is this Keto-friendly tomato soup suitable for meal prep?

Absolutely. Keto soup recipes that are meal prep friendly are great for keeping you on track. You can prepare a large batch of this tomato soup and divide it into microwave-safe containers. Store them in the fridge for up to 4 days. When you’re ready to enjoy this soup, microwave 1 container for a couple of minutes until warm.

What’s the best side to serve with this low-carb soup?

You can enjoy this soup in many ways. It is delicious on its own, but you can also eat it with Keto crackers. If you are feeling more creative in the kitchen, you can prepare a low-carb grilled cheese to go with it. You can also keep it light and fresh by pairing it with a simple salad. You can serve this soup with whatever you desire, and it will still be divine.

Is this Keto soup freezer-friendly?

Yes, it is! Freezing this low-carb soup will save you time on many occasions. Once the soup cools completely, divide it into airtight containers and place them in the freezer. You can store them for up to 3 months. To thaw, place a container in the fridge overnight or on the counter for a couple of hours. Transfer the soup to a small saucepan over medium heat and bring it to a simmer. If the cream cheese curdles, then you can blend it again using an immersion blender.

          Love this soup. Quite spicy. Maybe use just a little less cream cheese and no salt. Definitely make again
