• Ground beef - The star of the dish, providing the beefy flavor and essential protein.
• Beef broth - Serves as the base of the soup, adding depth and richness.
• Sea Salt & black pepper - Basic seasoning to enhance the natural flavors of the meat and broth.
• Garlic powder & Onion powder (optional) - Adds aromatic, savory notes that mimic a cheeseburger without needing fresh onions or garlic.
• Red Chili Flakes (optional) - For a subtle heat, great for those who like a little kick.
  Shredded Cheddar Cheese - Melts into the broth to create a rich, cheesy flavor; Swiss cheese can be used for a milder taste.
• Cream Cheese - Adds creaminess and a slight tang that balances the savory meatiness.
• Heavy Cream - Thickens the soup while contributing a silky texture and added fat for satiety.

Optional Toppings (for added flavor and variety)

• Sour Cream - A tangy topper that complements the richness of the soup.
• Shredded Cheddar Cheese - Extra cheesiness never hurts.
• Chopped Parsley (if ketovore) - Adds color and freshness.
• Crispy Bacon Pieces - Brings crunch and an extra punch of savory flavor.

Slow Cooker Method

Begin by browning one pound of lean ground beef in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Transfer the cooked beef into the slow cooker.

Pour the beef broth, then season with sea salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and red chili flakes if desired.

Set your slow cooker to low and let it simmer for 4-6 hours, or turn it to high and cook for 1 hour if you're short on time.

About 30 minutes before serving, stir in four ounces of cream cheese, two cups of shredded cheddar cheese, and half a cup of heavy cream.

Let everything melt together, stirring occasionally to ensure the soup becomes fully creamy and smooth.

Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve hot, topped with your favorite keto-friendly garnishes like crispy bacon, sour cream, or extra cheese.

Stovetop Instructions

For a quicker stovetop version, start by browning the ground beef in a large 5-quart pot over medium-high heat. 

Once the beef is fully cooked, pour in the beef broth and add your dry seasonings.

Reduce the heat to medium-low and let the soup simmer gently for about 20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

Next, stir in the cream cheese, shredded cheddar, and heavy cream. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the cheeses are fully melted and the soup has thickened to your liking.

Tip: For an extra thick consistency, feel free to stir in an additional half cup of grated cheddar at the end.
