Keto Loaded Baked Potato Soup (No Potatoes)
This Keto Loaded Baked Potato Soup skips real potatoes and still delivers rich, creamy, savory magic. Made with cauliflower, vegan cheese, and pure comfort.
Ingredients
- 1 medium head cauliflower chopped into florets
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 small onion diced
- 3 garlic cloves minced
- 3 cups vegetable broth low-sodium
- 1/2 cup full-fat coconut milk
- 1/4 cup nutritional yeast
- 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- 2 tbsp chopped chives for garnish
- Vegan coconut bacon or smoky tempeh bits for topping optional
- Vegan cheddar-style cheese shredded, optional but dreamy
Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat like the kitchen boss you are.
- Add diced onion and sauté until translucent, about 4 minutes. Garlic joins the party next—sizzle for 1 minute.
- Toss in cauliflower florets, smoked paprika, onion powder, and a pinch of salt. Stir like you’re stirring drama.
- Pour in broth, cover, and simmer until cauliflower softens. This takes about 12–15 minutes—go hydrate.
- Once soft, blend the whole thing until smooth and creamy (immersion blender or carefully in batches).
- Stir in coconut milk and nutritional yeast. Taste and adjust salt, because flavor is queen.
- Simmer 5 more minutes to thicken slightly. Serve hot with vegan cheese, coconut bacon, and chives on top.
- Smile smugly. You just made loaded soup with no actual potatoes. Brilliance.
