I love food writing and Kenji at Serious Eats is one of my super favorites. He just posted this recipe for a perfect keto soup for fall: Creamy Cauliflower and Bacon Soup
Of course, after drooling, I thought of you ladies!

Holy crap, this is everything I love in the world. Definitely going to be making this! Thanks for sharing :)
BTW - I put this recipe into MFP and after messing with the garlic qty (does it ever change garlic CLOVES to CUPS of garlic to anyone else!??!) the macros come out to: 471cal, 16g net carb, 29g protein, 31g fat per serving (1/4 recipe). I'm thinking it would be perfect (and might fit into people's macros better) with a smaller serving, perhaps 1/6 or 1/8 recipe?, along side a green salad or some steak.
I've found a lot of 'low carb' recipes are like this.... I'm always suspicious when they don't list the macros; even then, ALWAYS calculate it yourself. You won't be buying the same brand as them, etc!
Personally I do 1 head cauliflower and some broccolli as well -no onion - 6c broth - only 1/2c or so cream - then just thicken the soup with xantham gum or something.. 1-2c serving.
Yeah, I'd probably leave at least half of the onion out myself (too much onion makes my stomach all icky) and leave some of the cream out - once cauliflower is cooked, it's so creamy on its own that it really doesn't need a whole lot of help! The great thing about simple recipes like this is that it's super easy to personalize them.
Agreed - I re-did the recipe in my head and made several low carb adjustments (like the onion!). The recipe isn't trying to be keto, but it's so close with some adjustments that it's a keeper for me.
Onion makes me gassy. Very, very gassy. XD
New to this, what's a macro?
making this tonight! thanks!
Awwww yisssss, definitely making this over the weekend. Been looking for something new to do with cauliflower. Thanks for sharing!
Holy crap this looks amazing.
Anyone know a substitute if you don't have a dutch oven?
a large pot shroud be fine!
Okay, just made this. Def. don't skimp on the salt. Might be some shredded cheese wouldn't go amiss. Overall, super tasty.
Yay!
