When my picky son requested I make him a tomato soup, I jumped at the opportunity to create a keto tomato bacon cheddar soup.

I’ll admit that while he was growing up at times I would get pretty frustrated with Matt’s finicky palate. However, these days it’s a rare thing that he pulls me aside and asks me to make him something to eat.

He is getting to an age where I recognize that these moments must be cherished before they fade into a precious distant memory.

With some tomato paste, chicken stock, bacon, cheddar cheese, and a little heavy cream you’ll have a heartwarming keto tomato soup recipe in minutes.

How To Make Keto Tomato Soup

This homemade keto soup recipe is pretty straightforward and starts off with smoky bacon. Yes, bacon because we know everything goes so well with it. 

You’ll be frying up the bacon in the soup pot and then setting it aside to use as a garnish. Be sure to reserve the bacon fat to cook the onions. 

Once your onions are tender then it’s time to cook the garlic and add the tomato paste and dried Italian seasonings.

After that has had a minute or two to cook, you’ll add the chicken or vegetable stock and allow the soup to come to a simmer.

Next, after about 20 minutes or so it’s time to add the shredded cheddar cheese and heavy cream. Continue to cook and stir allowing the cheese to melt completely and thicken the soup, for about 10 more minutes.

Honestly, the smells of this soup alone cooking are sure to bring everyone into the kitchen.  Is there anything more comforting than a bowl of tomato soup? Personally, I don’t think so. 

Matt must have been around 12 years old when I pointed to the refrigerator and pantry and told him he had permission to feed himself. Frankly, it was freeing and it forced him to get creative.

I am a firm believer that allowing our children in the kitchen creates an appreciation for food like nothing else. Not to mention that it’s a life skill that they will always use.

However, this does not mean that I don’t enjoy cooking a meal that the ENTIRE family will enjoy. Today, I rarely enter the kitchen without a notebook. After all, you never know when a new recipe will be birthed.

With diabetes running on both sides of our family, it would do him good to learn to eat lower in carbs and clean up his diet.

I figured that if I was going to make Matthew a tomato soup, I was going to make sure it was diabetic-friendly tomato soup and make it a memorable experience. 

The combination of bacon, cheddar cheese, and tomato is simply stunning and I am happy to report that Matthew loved the soup. Making me pretty confident that so will you.
