Creamy Keto Soup with Bacon, Sausage, and Mushrooms

This creamy keto soup is packed with flavor from the bacon, sausage, and mushrooms. It's a hearty and satisfying meal that's perfect for a cold winter night.

This soup was inspired by a dish I had at a restaurant in the mountains of North Carolina. It was a cold and rainy day, and I was looking for something warm and comforting to eat. The soup was everything I hoped for and more. It was creamy, rich, and full of flavor. I knew I had to recreate it at home, so I experimented with different ingredients and flavors until I came up with this recipe.

Prep time: 15 | Cook time: 20 | Serves: 4

Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1/2 pound bacon, chopped
• 1/2 pound breakfast sausage, removed from casing
• 1/2 pound mushrooms, sliced
• 1/2 onion, chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 4 cups chicken broth
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

1. Add olive oil, bacon, sausage, mushrooms, onion, and garlic to a large pot over medium heat.
2. Cook until the bacon is crispy and the sausage is browned.

4. Reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes.
