Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground beef (or turkey)
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 small green bell pepper, diced
  • 1 small red bell pepper, diced
  • 1 small yellow bell pepper, diced
  • 1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes, undrained

  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup cauliflower rice (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional, for topping)

  6. Step 6: Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve hot, garnished with shredded cheddar cheese and fresh parsley if desired.

Tips & Variations

  • For a spicier twist, add chopped jalapeños or a dash of hot sauce while cooking.
  • Top with avocado slices or a dollop of sour cream to add richness while keeping it keto-friendly.
  • Use ground turkey as a leaner alternative to beef.
  • Frozen cauliflower rice works well and saves prep time.

Storage

This soup stores well in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stove over medium heat until warmed through. Avoid boiling again to maintain texture.

How to Serve

A wooden bowl is filled with a thick, chunky soup, showing three main layers: the bright red broth at the base, scattered with small pieces of rice and oil drops; the middle layer has ground meat and diced green and red bell peppers, soft and mixed evenly; on top, fresh chopped green herbs are sprinkled for color. A metal spoon rests inside the bowl on the right side, partly submerged. The bowl sits on a wooden cutting board, next to torn pieces of soft white bread, all placed on a white marbled textured surface with a light-colored cloth on the left edge. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

FAQs

Can I use other types of meat in this soup?

Yes, ground turkey or chicken can be used as a leaner alternative and will still work well with the flavors.

Is this soup suitable for freezing?

It can be frozen, but the texture of the cauliflower rice may change slightly. For best results, freeze without cheese and add fresh toppings after reheating.
