Recipe Ingredients

Roast the vegetables

Preheat oven to 425 degrees and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Then place the cauliflower florets, sliced onion, and peeled garlic in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet and toss with the avocado oil. Roast the vegetables for 30-35 minutes, until the cauliflower is becoming golden brown and softened. Set aside. 

Saute the carrots and celery

When the vegetables are just about done roasting, heat the butter in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the shredded carrots and diced celery and saute until tender, about 2-3 minutes.

Simmer

Add the roasted vegetables, vegetable broth, fresh thyme, salt and pepper to the pot. Bring to a boil, then allow to simmer for 10 minutes, uncovered, stirring occasionally. You may need to reduce the heat as it cooks.

Blend the soup

Remove the pot from heat and blend the soup with an immersion blender or transfer to a blender and blend until smooth. 

Add the cheese and heavy cream

Return the soup back to the pot and stir in the cheese and heavy cream. Heat again over medium heat until warmed through. Ladle the soup into bowls, garnish with more thyme leaves, salt and pepper to taste and serve!

Serve

You could serve this Cauliflower Soup as a stand alone dish. However, there are several great side dish options that pair perfectly with this soup recipe. Here are some of our favorites:

Storage and Reheating Instructions

• Reheating Instructions: To reheat, my preferred choice is heating on low on the stovetop. Stirring intermittently. To reheat from frozen, allow to thaw in the fridge overnight before reheating. 
• Refrigerator Storage: Allow to cool completely. Then, you can store this soup in an airtight container for up to 3 days in the refrigerator. We like to store leftovers in single serving containers so we can just grab and go!
• Freezer Storage: This cauliflower soup freezes well. After allowing to cool completely, freeze in a freezer-safe container for up to 3 months. This recipe provides 6 servings so we prefer to store in multiple containers so we don’t have to thaw it all at once.

Turkey Soup Recipe

Well, folks, the Thanksgiving feast is over, and you’re left with a fridge full of leftovers that’s starting to resemble a culinary jigsaw puzzle. What’s a turkey-loving hero to do? Fear not, for the answer lies in the unsung hero of post-Thanksgiving meals: turkey soup! It’s the soup that’s so good; even the turkey wishes it could be in it.

Think of it as the turkey’s encore performance, a star-studded sequel that takes those leftover turkey bits and turns them into a belly-warming masterpiece. It’s like a cozy hug in a bowl, and it’s here to save you from the dreaded turkey fatigue. So, grab your ladle and prepare for a journey into the land of comfort food, where leftovers become legends and flavor is the name of the game!

Why you’ll love it:

• Easy – This recipe comes together in just __ minutes, and it’s a good soup for beginners! You do temper the eggs (a neat skill to learn), but it’s not a complicated process.
• Healthy – This recipe is low in calories, fat, and carbs for a delicious, healthy meal! Even though it’s incredibly creamy, it includes no dairy, gluten, or nuts. It works with the keto, low-carb, whole30, and paleo diets.
• Uses leftover turkey – We love having this soup after holidays to use up the leftover turkey in the fridge! It’s an easy, inexpensive way to reduce waste and make the most of holiday sales.

Leftover Turkey Soup Ingredients

Here’s a quick overview of what you’ll need for this recipe. Scroll to the bottom of the page for the printable recipe card with exact measurements.

• Olive oil – Feel free to swap this with your preferred cooking oil of choice.
• Onion, Celery, Carrots, and Garlic – You can chop your onion, celery, and carrots up to a week in advance to help cut down your prep time! Jarred minced garlic can speed things up as well. Feel free to use frozen chopped veggies–Just add a minute or so to the first step.
• Cooked turkey – This can be holiday leftovers or freshly cooked. You can use smoked, air fried, roasted, or slow cooker turkey. Dark meat adds a bit more fat but stays nice and juicy.
• Broth or stock – Store-bought chicken broth is fine, but feel free to make your own stock to save money and add more flavor. If you cooked a full turkey for the holidays, use that carcass to create your own broth! It’s a great way to reduce waste that also adds loads of flavor.
• Eggs – These are used to thicken the soup and add a delicious creaminess. I’ve not tried any egg substitutes in this recipe.
• Lemon juice – This brightens the flavor and shouldn’t be skipped! Store-bought is fine, though freshly squeezed has more flavor.
• Fresh dill, Salt, and Pepper – Added for flavor, feel free to adjust for your own taste preferences.

For this recipe, you’ll also need a large pot or Dutch oven, a mixing bowl, a whisk, and a stovetop or hot plate.

How to Make Turkey Soup with Leftovers

This wholesome, delicious soup comes together easily. Here’s a quick step-by-step guide for this easy keto dinner.

Saute veggies

Place a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat, then add in olive oil. Pour in the chopped onion, celery, carrots, and garlic, then saute for 4-5 minutes. Stir occasionally until the vegetables have softened and the garlic is fragrant.

Simmer

Add the cooked, seasoned turkey and the broth into the pot and increase the heat to medium-high. Bring the broth to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low. Simmer, stirring occasionally, for 15 minutes.

Temper eggs

In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs and lemon juice together. Scoop 1/2 cup of the hot broth out of the soup and very slowly pour it into the egg and lemon mixture while you continue whisking. This process allows the eggs to slowly warm up, preventing them from cooking too quickly and turning into scrambled eggs. Repeat this two more times until you have 1 1/2 cups of broth mixed into the lemon and egg mixture.

Stir together

Once the eggs have been tempered, slowly pour them into the soup pot with the chicken and veggies, stirring as you pour. Serve the soup immediately with fresh dill, salt, and pepper. Add lemon wedges for a nice additional hit of acidity.

Store

Allow soup to cool, then store in an airtight container in the fridge up to 3 days. Pouring leftovers into individual-sized containers is great for grab-and-go lunch packing! If you don’t have time or access for reheating, pack some in this thermos, and it’ll stay hot all day long! For offices, this little electric lunch box is super convenient!

Freeze

Allow soup to completely cool, then transfer to a freezer bag or container. Make sure to leave enough room for the soup to expand as it freezes, or your container may burst! This soup is best eaten within 3 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating.

Reheat

You can easily reheat this soup in the microwave or in a pot on the stove.

• Microwave – Reheat in 1-minute increments at 50% power, then stir between each blast. Consider covering with a paper towel to prevent splatters.
• Stovetop – Pour soup into a pot over medium low heat, stirring occasionally until warmed throughout.

Soup may thicken up in the fridge. You can always thin out the soup a bit with a splash of broth.

Keto Lettuce Wraps with Buffalo Chicken

This delicious Buffalo Chicken Wrap recipe is going to be your new favorite go-to meal! It tastes as good as a basket full of your favorite wings slathered in sauce, but it’s actually a perfectly healthy meal prep recipe you can feel good eating. You can easily double or triple this recipe to feed a crowd, and it’s a great lunchtime potluck recipe!

You can quickly make these on a busy weeknight for dinner, and they make great leftover lunches! Whether you choose to warm up the chicken or eat it cold, this is a healthy meal that satisfies all your salty, spicy food cravings.

Ingredients for Buffalo Chicken Lettuce Wraps

Here’s a quick overview of what you’ll need for this recipe. For exact measurements, keep scrolling down to the printable recipe card.

• Ground chicken – You can often find ground chicken on sale, so this can be an excellent inexpensive meal! The texture keeps buffalo chicken salad nice and juicy instead of dried out. Feel free to swap with ground turkey if you prefer.
• Celery, Carrots – These pair perfectly with the ranch and buffalo sauce! This also helps stretch the chicken further, makes the dish more filling, and adds loads of nutrients to the meal.
• Hidden Valley Ranch seasoning packet – Such an easy way of seasoning! It also has thickening ingredients that help keep the sauce creamy and rich. Feel free to use a store brand version if you like that better.
• Chicken broth or water, Cream cheese, Buffalo sauce – These create a deliciously flavorful sauce! Homemade chicken stock adds more flavor than water, but water will work in a pinch. Softened, room temperature cream cheese melts into a smoother consistency, so remember to take it out of the fridge ahead of time.
• Bleu cheese crumbles – The perfect cheese to pair with buffalo sauce! The tangy flavor cuts through the sauce and works well with the ranch seasoning, too.
• Butter lettuce – This is a natural choice for lettuce cups because they already form the perfect size cup for filling! There’s a good crunch and mild flavor that goes with everything as well.
• Optional garnish: Green onions, celery, shredded carrots, additional ranch dressing

How to Make Buffalo Chicken Lettuce Wraps

These easy chicken lettuce wraps are simple to throw together. Here’s a step-by-step guide for making this chicken meal prep recipe.

Brown the chicken & sauté veggies

Heat a large, greased skillet to medium heat. Brown the ground chicken, breaking it up into bite-sized pieces as it cooks. Drain off any grease, then add in the celery and carrots. Sauté until softened, about 3-4 minutes.

Season & simmer

Add the ranch seasoning packet to the skillet and stir in the broth or water. Continue stirring until seasonings are well incorporated. Cook for 4-5 minutes while the liquid evaporates, stirring occasionally to prevent things from sticking.

Add creamy sauce

In a small bowl, combine the room temperature cream cheese and buffalo sauce, stirring until smooth. If it’s difficult to stir out the clumps, microwave in 15-second increments to help soften and smooth it out. Pour this buffalo sauce mixture into the skillet and toss to coat. Spoon into lettuce wraps and top with bleu cheese as well as green onions, shredded carrots, and extra ranch.

Serve

These tasty Buffalo Chicken Lettuce Wraps are great with crunchy keto chips (or these Ranch Zucchini Chips to add a little more nutrition). Sides you can eat with your hands always win when pairing with lettuce wraps… Think Keto Fries, Crispy Green Bean Fries, or Baked Zucchini Fries for easy low-carb recipes you can dip. If you like ranch but want more spice, try this Jalapeno Ranch Dip instead!

More great low-carb sides you could pair with lettuce wraps:

• Zucchini Fritters
• Keto Jalapeno Poppers
• Air Fryer Keto Mozzarella Sticks
• Grilled Zucchini Mozzarella Wraps

Storing & Reheating

This recipe is best stored in the fridge in an airtight container WITHOUT the lettuce wraps. When kept separate, the buffalo chicken filling can last up to 4 days. If you store them together, the moisture in the filling will ruin the lettuce wraps within a day. To keep lettuce fresh, store with a few paper towels to soak up moisture that could wilt the leaves.

To reheat, transfer the chicken filling to a microwave-safe dish and heat on 50% power for 45-60 second increments, stirring between each blast. This helps ensure the center gets hot without overheating the cream cheese mixture. If you don’t have a microwave, simply transfer back to the skillet and heat (covered with lid) on low, stirring occasionally.

Can you freeze lettuce wraps?

The crisp butter lettuce leaves cannot survive the freezing and defrosting process, so it’s not recommended to freeze these. However, you could freeze the chicken filling. Simply scoop into a freezer-safe container and enjoy within 3 months for the best flavor and texture. When ready to eat, thaw overnight in the fridge and give a good stir before reheating. Sometimes the texture of cream cheese can change a bit after freezing/thawing, so make sure to stir well.

Cabbage and Sausage Soup

It’s starting to cool down, so that means soup season is starting! This Cabbage and Sausage Soup is going to be exactly what you’re going to be craving all fall and winter long! Smoked sausage is combined with chopped onion, celery, bell pepper, carrots and cabbage to make a veggie packed soup that is low in carbs but high in flavor! You’re going to add in onion and garlic powder, paprika and oregano to give this soup a rich, herby flavor with minimal effort.

This cabbage soup has a large serving of both protein and fiber, so it will keep you full. There’s a large serving of vegetables in each bowl, so you can really feel good about feeding this to your family! And the best part about this meal- it’s the perfect weeknight soup!

This meal all cooks in one pot and is ready in only 20 minutes. So you can have this on the table in no time! This recipe is also great for making ahead of time or for keto meal prep!

Ingredients in Cabbage Soup

As always, here is a quick overview of the ingredients used in our Cabbage and Sausage Soup. For the complete recipe, just scroll to the bottom of the page.

• Smoked sausage- you could also use turkey, chicken, or andouille sausage
• Onion, celery, bell pepper, carrots, cabbage- chopped
• Broth- vegetable, beef or chicken
• Minced garlic, onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, and oregano

How do I make this Cabbage Soup recipe?

This smoked sausage soup is ready in only 20 minutes with 3 simple steps!

1. Heat a dutch oven (or large pot) to medium heat and brown your sausage.
2. Add the minced garlic, onion, celery, bell pepper and carrots. Cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3. Stir in the broth, cabbage and spices. Simmer soup for 10-15 minutes and top with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.

Tips for the best Cabbage and Sausage Soup

• To make this recipe even faster, prep everything before hand! Chop up your sausage and veggies so that when you’re ready to cook, all you need to do is pop everything into your dutch oven!
• If you only have a large pot, that will work fine for this recipe. You may have to brown your sausage in stages, so that you can be sure you’re getting a good browning on all sides.
• If you wanted to use a different type of sausage, that would work fine! I also think this recipe would be good with ground beef or pork.

What should I serve with Sausage Soup?

One of the wonderful things about this soup is that it’s so filling- the large amount of veggies and protein will do that! But if you wanted to add some sides, I think Cheddar Garlic Keto Biscuits or Rosemary Garlic Keto Dinner Rolls would be delicious, but check out my list of Keto Bread Recipes for more yummy low carb bread recipes! You could also add a Keto Soup Topper to your sausage soup! 

How to Store and Reheat Soup

To store this soup, allow to cool and transfer to a plastic or glass container with an airtight lid and store in the fridge. This soup will stay fresh for up to five days. To reheat, you can either microwave in 30 second increments until hot enough for you, or on low heat on the stovetop.

Can I freeze this Cabbage and Sausage Soup?

Yes, you can! Allow this soup to cool completely and add to a freezer bag- I recommend using these bag rack holders to make the process much smoother. Lay on a sheet pan and allow the bags to freeze laying flat, so the bags will be easier to store. Once frozen, remove from the sheet pan. To heat from frozen, allow to thaw in the fridge overnight and then warm on the stove top. Do not refreeze.

Is this good for meal prep?

I love this recipe for meal prep. Simply prepare ahead of time and store in a microwave safe container so you can warm it up anywhere. This soup is hearty and filling and will keep you feeling full and satisfied!
