- Add your chopped vegetables and stir to coat them in the beef and spice mixture. Let everything simmer together until the vegetables have softened slightly, about 5 minutes.1/2 cup onion, 1/2 cup bell pepper, 1/2 cup cauliflower rice
- Pour in the canned tomatoes and beef broth, bring to a low simmer, and let it all bubble gently for 10 minutes so the flavors can come together.1/2 cup crushed tomatoes, 1 cup beef broth
- While the soup simmers, blend the cottage cheese until smooth using a small blender or stick blender.1/2 cup full-fat cottage cheese
- Turn off the heat completely, then stir in the blended cottage cheese and shredded cheddar cheese. Let the residual heat melt everything into a smooth, creamy soup. Do not let it boil.1/4 cup cheddar cheese
- Ladle into bowls and finish with a sprinkle of fresh chopped cilantro.2 tablespoons cilantro
Notes
- Blend the cottage cheese first. It keeps the soup smooth and prevents curdling.
- Always stir in the cheeses after turning off the heat. Do not boil once added.
- If freezing, leave out the cheese and stir it in fresh when reheating.
- You can skip the cauliflower rice to reduce carbs. The soup still works without it.
- Swap ground beef for turkey or chicken if you want something lighter.
- Serve with garlic knots or keto breadsticks for the full cozy dinner moment.
