THIS LOW CARB MINESTRONE SOUP HAS A SECRET INGREDIENT & CONTAINS A KETO BEAN THAT YOU HAVE YOU SHOOK!
This time of year, we want easy soup recipes. This low carb minestrone soup recipe is a pot of chucky vegetables in a savory broth that is simmered in our special ingredient – the rind of parmesan cheese!
Using a parmesan cheese rind in minestrone soup is nothing new. Simmering our vegetable broth with a parmesan rind helps to add a delicious umami flavor to our low carb soup. Of course, this is an easy keto soup recipe but the longer you let your soup simmer with the parmesan rind, the more the flavor develops.
Another special ingredient we use in this keto minestrone soup is lupini beans. Instead of using kidney or northern beans which are typically found in a lot of minestrone soup recipes, I opted for the only keto bean I know of, which is the lupin bean. In 1/4 cup of lupini beans there are 2 grams net carbs.

MINESTRONE SOUP
Serves: 8
2 slices bacon, diced or 2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 cup diced onions
1/2 cup diced carrots
3 stalk celery, diced
2 medium zucchini, diced
14-28 oz can whole tomatoes
4 cup chicken broth, vegetable broth or water
1 parmesan cheese rind, about 1×4”
1 cup cauliflower rice
1 cup lupini beans
3 cups spinach leaves
1️⃣ 01:51 – Add bacon to a large stock pot or Dutch oven. Cook over medium-high heat until cooked but not crispy.
2️⃣ 02:06 – Add diced onions, carrots and celery to the pot and continue cooking until almost tender
3️⃣ 02:21 – Add chicken broth or vegetable broth, 1 teaspoon salt, zucchini, tomatoes and parmesan rind. Bring to boil, then reduce heat to a simmer. Let cook uncovered until vegetables are tender (at least 20 minutes). The longer you let the soup simmer, the more flavor the parmesan rind will release.
