Description
A creamy, hearty Keto Tuscan Soup that combines rich flavors with a low-carb lifestyle, perfect for cozy evenings.
Ingredients
- 1 lb (450g) ground Italian sausage
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 4 cups (950 ml) low-sodium chicken broth
- 1 cup (240 ml) heavy cream
- 2 cups (60g) fresh spinach, chopped
- 1/2 cup (50g) sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: Grated Parmesan cheese for garnish
Instructions
- Sauté the sausage: Start your Instant Pot on the sauté setting. Add the ground Italian sausage, breaking it up with a spatula. Cook until browned, about 5 minutes.
- Add aromatics: Stir in the chopped onion and cook for an additional 3 minutes until softened. Follow with the minced garlic, cooking until fragrant (about 1 minute).
- Pour in the broth: Add the chicken broth and scrape any browned bits off the bottom of the pot.
- Mix in the cream and seasonings: Stir in the heavy cream, Italian seasoning, and the chopped sun-dried tomatoes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Pressure cook: Close the lid and set the valve to sealing. Cook on high pressure for 10 minutes, then allow for a quick release.
- Add spinach: Open the lid carefully and stir in the chopped spinach. Let it wilt for about 2-3 minutes.
- Serve: Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with grated Parmesan cheese if desired.
Notes
For a lighter version, replace heavy cream with unsweetened coconut milk. Use fresh spinach for best texture and flavor.
