This simple vegan Keto soup is deliciously creamy and warming - perfect for cooler days. Our low carb plant-based soup is prepared with coconut oil, aromatic onion and garlic, celery, tender baby spinach, vegetable stock, and coconut cream. Ideal with a slice of warm Keto toast or low carb dinner rolls for dipping. Coconut cream is much thicker and richer in consistency than coconut milk and has a higher fat content. You can buy coconut cream on its own as an individual ingredient. Alternatively, you can chill a can of coconut milk, allowing the cream to separate from the liquid. The cream can then be scooped from the top of the can for use in this recipe, and the liquid can be retained for another recipe or used in smoothies. We have added two generous cups of baby spinach leaves to our Keto vegan soup. Baby spinach is the younger, more tender leaves of regular spinach and has a slightly milder taste. You can easily interchange the type of spinach you wish to use in this recipe and even use kale if preferred. Please be sure to adjust your macros to account for any changes made to the original recipe.

From there, you can expect to see a variety of other toppings including crumbled chihuahua cheese, avocado, fried eggs, crema, jalapenos, and more. Who says you can t have chips for breakfast? Don t make the full meal and try to meal prep it. Instead, make the components of the meal and store them separately to re-assemble at meal time.
