Low carb crockpot ham & cheese cauliflower soup

Low Carb Crockpot Ham & Cheese Cauliflower Soup is a delicious and nutritious meal that's perfect for those following a low-carb diet. This hearty soup combines the comforting flavors of ham and cheddar cheese with the nutritional benefits of cauliflower, making it an ideal dish for a chilly day.

Ingredients:

1 head cauliflower
590g
2 cups vegetable broth
480g
1 tsp mustard seeds
2g
3 garlic cloves
9g
1 dash salt
0.40g
1 dash black pepper
1/10g
2 cups cheddar cheese
230g
8 oz ham
230g
1/4 tsp red pepper (spice)
0.08g

Instructions:

2. Slow Cooker Setup: Place the chopped cauliflower into your crockpot. Add the vegetable broth, mustard seeds, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes.
3. Cooking Phase: Cover the crockpot and set it to cook on low for 4-6 hours, or on high for 2-3 hours. The cauliflower should become tender and easy to pierce with a fork.
4. Blending: Once the cauliflower is tender, use an immersion blender to puree the contents of the crockpot until smooth. If you don’t have an immersion blender, you can carefully transfer the soup in batches to a regular blender and blend until smooth, then return it to the crockpot.
5. Add Cheese and Ham: Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese into the pureed soup until it's completely melted and incorporated. Then, add the diced ham and stir to combine.
6. Final Warming: Let the soup cook for an additional 15-20 minutes on low to ensure the cheese is fully melted and the ham is warmed through.
7. Taste and Adjust: Taste the soup and adjust the seasoning if necessary, adding more salt or pepper to taste.
8. Serve: Ladle the soup into bowls and serve hot. Enjoy your creamy, flavorful low-carb ham and cheese cauliflower soup!

Tips:

- Chop the cauliflower into small, uniform pieces to ensure even cooking.

- For a smoother texture, you can blend the soup using an immersion blender before adding the cheese and ham.

- Taste and adjust the seasoning before serving, adding more salt or pepper if necessary.

- You can use pre-cooked ham to save time and add it towards the end of the cooking process for the best texture.

- Garnish with fresh herbs like parsley or chives for an extra burst of flavor and color.

Enjoy a warm bowl of Low Carb Crockpot Ham & Cheese Cauliflower Soup, packed with flavors and nutrients. It’s a simple, yet satisfying meal that’s easy to prepare and perfect for any occasion.
