  • Creamy Keto Taco Soup
    Delicious and hearty this Creamy Keto Taco Soup is a must have for the cold winter season. Simple and clean ingredients come together in a one pot meal for a hearty and filling soup full of bold, fresh flavors. Winter is in full force here in Missouri with today’s temperature topping out at 32 degrees. We have icy puddles of water from a recent rain and after weeks of above average temperatures have now pulled out the coats and gloves. I can’t wait for you to try this warm and hearty, perfect for winter, Creamy Keto Taco Soup. Ingredients for the Creamy Keto Taco Soup I have made this soup twice now.
