Healthy Slow Cooker Cabbage Roll Soup (low-carb & keto)

Step 1

Open your packet of ground meat and place it in a medium-sized pot. Add water so that it covers the meat. Turn the heat on medium so that it will slowly simmer. Next, use a wooden spoon or spatula to break it up in the water.

Step 2

Simmer the meat in water on medium heat for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Drain and set the meat aside to add to the slow cooker.

Step 3

Cut the cabbage into medium-sized ribbons or shreds. Then chop those into smaller pieces. They should be small enough to fit on a large soup spoon.

Step 4

Dice the onion.

Step 5

If you did not buy cauliflower that is already riced or finely chopped, do that now. The best way to do this is to add cauliflower florets into a food processor. Chop until ground about the size of grains of rice.

Step 6

Once the meat is cooked and the vegetables are chopped, everything is ready to go into the slow cooker. Add the drained meat, spices, onion, cabbage, cauliflower, tomato sauce, tomato paste, and broth. Stir to combine.

Step 7

Set the slow cooker to high for 4 hours.You can also set it for low for 8-10 hours - this works best for when you are cooking this while you are away from home for a full day.

Step 8

Once the timer is up, the soup is ready. The cabbage should be tender and the riced cauliflower should be cooked but not mushy.

Step 9

Ladle into soup bowls. Optional- top with a dollop of sour cream. Enjoy.
