Ingredients

Meat

  • 1 lb ground beef or Italian sausage

Vegetables & Aromatics

  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

Liquids & Canned Goods

  • 1 can (14 oz) crushed tomatoes (no sugar added)
  • 4 cups chicken broth

Dairy

  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Seasonings & Garnish

  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh basil for garnish

Instructions

  1. Brown the Meat: In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef or Italian sausage until browned. Drain the excess fat and transfer the cooked meat to a crockpot.
  2. Add Ingredients to Crockpot: Add the crushed tomatoes, chicken broth, diced onion, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper to the crockpot with the browned meat. Stir well to combine all ingredients.
  3. Cook the Soup: Cover the crockpot and cook on low heat for 6-7 hours or on high heat for 3-4 hours, allowing the flavors to meld together.
  4. Add Cheeses: Before serving, stir in the ricotta cheese and half of the shredded mozzarella cheese until the soup becomes creamy and the cheeses are melted.
  5. Serve and Garnish: Ladle the soup into bowls, garnish with fresh basil leaves and sprinkle the remaining mozzarella cheese on top. Serve hot for a delicious keto-friendly meal.

Notes

  • Use Italian sausage for a spicier, more flavorful base or ground beef for a milder taste.
  • Ensure the crushed tomatoes have no added sugar to keep the recipe keto-friendly.
  • For a vegetarian version, substitute the meat with mushrooms and use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth.
  • To make this soup dairy-free, omit the ricotta and mozzarella and consider adding a dairy-free cheese alternative.
  • Leftover soup can be refrigerated for up to 3 days or frozen for up to 2 months.
