Say hello to your next favorite keto recipe! This Easy Keto Soup with Sausage, Peppers, and Spinach is ready in under an hour and is full of fantastic flavors.

I don't know about you, but I feel like there aren't enough keto soup recipes out there.

There are a lot of meat- and egg-heavy keto recipes, and a good number of veggie-heavy keto recipes, but I rarely see a keto soup recipe! The whole soup category just seems to be passed over in the keto world for some reason.

I'm going to change that with this post! Easy Keto Soup with Sausage, Peppers, and Spinach is super low in carbs and high in fat and tastes so good.

What is Keto?

The keto (ketogenic) diet is a low-carb, high-fat diet. It lowers blood sugar and insulin levels so that the body begins to burn fat and ketones as fuel instead of carbohydrates.

For those interested in learning more, there is a great deal of information about the keto diet along with many helpful resources that are readily available online.

What are the Health Benefits of the Keto Diet?

Many people following the Keto diet report experiencing following health benefits:

stabilized blood sugar levels
controlled food cravings and enhanced weight loss
more balanced digestive microbiome
lower cholesterol, including LDL levels, and lowered high triglycerides
increased energy and mental clarity

3 Great Reasons to Eat Soup

Reason #1: Soup helps you eat more vegetables. Eating more soup just might be the easiest way to increase your daily vegetable servings. Depending on the recipe, one bowl of soup can contain several servings of veggies, making it a truly nutrient-dense meal.

Reason #2: Soup can help you lose weight. A bowl of Easy Keto soup packs minimal calories but is very nutritious. So it may be smart to include regularly eating soup as part of a weight-loss and exercise program.

Reason #3: Soup makes you feel full. Soup fills you up because the water content and the food nutrients in soup are homogenized and remain in your stomach longer. This activates your satiety signals faster, so you will feel fuller sooner and stay satiated longer.

Easy Keto Soup is a Great Make-Ahead Meal

Don't you love it when a recipe tastes even better the next day? Some foods taste best fresh out of the pot or the oven, but others take time to hit their peak flavor. With this keto soup, the flavors have a chance to really come together and intensify on day two and beyond, making it a great leftovers soup or a great make-ahead soup.

I love this soup as an easy meal prep solution. Whip up a big pot of it (feel free to double or triple the ingredients!) and then store the batch in the fridge. Or, you can also portion it out into individual servings using microwave-safe containers like [easyazon_link identifier="B074DQG97P" locale="US" tag="allshecooksblog-20"]these[/easyazon_link]. That way you can quickly reheat your keto-approved meal as needed.

Meal prep is such an important part of successfully staying on the keto diet (or any healthy diet in general), and soups like this make meal prep so easy!

How to Make Easy Keto Soup Step by Step

Step #1: In a [easyazon_link identifier="B000N501BK" locale="US" tag="allshecooksblog-20"]Dutch oven[/easyazon_link] or large soup pot, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add sausage. Cook for approximately 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sausage is no longer pink inside. Break up the sausage into small pieces with a wooden spoon as it cooks.

Step #2: Add the peppers (red and Poblano), celery, oregano, basil, rosemary, chili powder, cumin, and cinnamon into the pot. Season with salt and pepper to taste, and then stir to combine. Cook while stirring occasionally until the vegetables have softened (about 5-6 minutes).

Step #3: Add chicken stock. Simmer for 20 minutes while stirring occasionally. Next add spinach and cook until the spinach wilts (about 4-5 minutes). Remove from heat.

To serve: Top Easy Keto Soup with cheese, and, if you'd like, additional diced Poblano peppers.
