Keto Chicken Taco Soup

This Keto Chicken Taco Soup recipe is filled with all of the flavors of a traditional taco soup but none of the carbs. Just put all of the ingredients in the slow cooker in the morning, and you’ll have a delicious hot dinner waiting for you that evening.

Making It Keto

One of the first things you probably noticed is that I left out the tortilla strips in this recipe, which most traditional taco soup recipes contain. Personally, I don’t think they add anything but unnecessary carbs to taco soup.

However, if you still want the extra crunch of tortilla chips, I have you covered! You can enjoy my delicious Keto Tortilla Chips that are made with just 4 ingredients, which you might already have in your Keto pantry right now!

You could also use Keto Pork Rinds as another crunchy option to add to the soup. And if you want even more crunchy options, check out these 32 Keto chip recipes.

Another topping you might notice that isn’t listed in the ingredients is sour cream. While some consider sour cream to be Keto since it’s relatively low carbs, I avoid it completely because it’s dairy, which isn’t as healthy as you might think.

So, if you are craving a bit of sour cream but without the dairy, you can use a dollop of unsweetened plain coconut yogurt instead. Or an even easier suggestion is to mix some coconut cream (that’s the solid part of a refrigerated can of unsweetened coconut milk) with a little bit of lemon juice.

Another way I have made this recipe Keto is one that you might not even notice. It’s the taco seasoning.

If you ever look at the ingredients of most store-bought taco seasoning packets, one of the first ingredients you’ll see is sugar. That’s right, sugar is usually a main ingredient in packaged taco seasoning. Crazy, right?

However, for this taco soup recipe, I used my own Keto Taco Seasoning recipe that is completely sugar-free. Even better, you can make it as hot or as mild as you want depending on the chili powder you use.

Of course, you can use store-bought taco seasoning, but be sure to look at the ingredients to check if sugar is listed. If it is, then I suggest to put it back and keep looking. You don’t want to knock yourself out of ketosis just because your taco seasoning has hidden sugar in it!
