Low Carb Zuppa Toscana
My friend made this Low Carb Zuppa Toscana Soup for me, and I instantly fell in love. It is so flavorful and best of all it is keto friendly.
I absolutely love soup. It is one of my favorite foods to eat. When she offered to bring me some of her creation I immediately said yes! We love to share food with each other when we cook more than our families will eat.
It is one of my favorite things about living so close to each other. We also enjoy eating dinner together a couple times a week. This recipe is hands down one of my favorites that she has ever cooked for me.
It is truly a comfort food for me. Anytime I can enjoy a rich and delicious soup that is low carb and gluten free that is a huge win/win. You can serve this soup with a salad and bread or crackers if you are not eating low carb.
This is a delicious low carb soup the whole family will love. The cauliflower rice becomes really flavorful. You can easily add more or less of the cayenne pepper based on your preference too.
