One of the first things you probably noticed was that I left out tortilla chips in this recipe, which most traditional taco soup recipes contain. Personally, I don’t think they add anything but unnecessary carbs to the tacos.
However, if you still want to eat extra tortilla chips, you’ve got them covered! You can enjoy delicious Keto Tortilla Chips made with only 4 ingredients, which you may already have in your Keto pantry right now!
You can also use Keto Pork Rinds as another crunchy option to add to soups. And if you want even more crunchy options, check out these 32 keto slice recipes.
Another ingredient that you may notice that is not included in the ingredients is sour cream. While some consider sour cream to be keto because it’s relatively low in carbs, I completely avoid it because it’s dairy, which isn’t as healthy as you think.
So, if you’re craving a little sour cream but no dairy, you can use a bit of unsweetened plain cream. Coconut Yogurt While that. Or an easier suggestion is to mix some coconut cream (this is the solid part of a refrigerated can of unsweetened coconut milk) with a little lemon juice.
Another way to make this Keto recipe is one you might not even notice. It’s taco seasoning.
If you’ve ever looked at the ingredients for most store-bought taco seasoning boxes, one of the first ingredients you’ll see is sugar. That’s right, sugar is usually a major ingredient in packaged taco seasoning. Crazy, right?
However, for this taco soup recipe, I used my keto taco seasoning recipe that is completely sugar-free. Even better, you can make it as hot or as light as you like depending on the chili powder you’re using.
Of course, you can use store-bought taco seasoning, but be sure to look at the ingredients to check if sugar is included. If so, I suggest returning it and continuing your search. You don’t want to get yourself out of ketosis just because your taco seasoning hides the sugar in it!
