Low Carb Instant Pot Pizza Soup

Instant Pot Pizza Soup

The Instant Pot is such a great kitchen accessory to make soup. You can cook in a fraction of the time for that slow simmered flavor in every spoonful. 

But the vest part of all this is a low carb soup that you don’t have to feel guilty about. 

Can You Meal Prep With This Soup

This soup recipe reheats nicely. Make a batch or even double batch of this soup and save back the leftovers to reheat for lunch or even dinners later in the week. 

Due to the cream cheese in the soup, you will find it doesn’t freeze the best. It will curdle a bit in texture, so it's best to just reheat it from cold.

Can I Swap Out Meat In Soup

This keto pizza soup uses ground beef and Italian sausage. Using both meats really helps to add a lot of depth of flavor to the dish. 

But feel free to use only one meat, change it up, etc.

Or if you want a meatless soup skip the meat and use a vegetable broth. You could add in a few extra mushrooms to make it a bit heartier. 

How to Make Low Carb Pizza Soup In Crock Pot

To make the soup in your crockpot instead of pressure cooker is pretty easy. 

Cook up your meat and place it in the crockpot. Add in all the other ingredients, except cream cheese, heavy cream, and kale. Cook on low 6-8 hours or high 3-4 hours. 

Around 20-30 minutes before serving add in cream cheese, kale, and the heavy cream. Mix until incorporated and kale wilts down to your preference.

Can This Recipe Be Doubled

If you have a larger pressure cooker you should very easily be able to double the recipe. The biggest thing is to always watch for the max fill line. 

You need to make sure you don’t go over the line or you can run into issues. Most of the time if you go over the line your pressure cooker will be unable to come to pressure.

Recipe FAQs 

  • Make sure to drain off excess fat once the meat is fully cooked. Otherwise it will be pretty greasy. 
  • Make sure to scrape the bottom of the Instant Pot to prevent any stuck on food causing a burn notice when you go to pressure cook. 
  • Quick release the pressure once soup is cooked. If juices come squirting out place a towel by spout to help catch the mess. Carefully and slowly work at releasing pressure. 
  • If you own a larger instant pot you can double your recipe. 
  • Get creative and change up some of the ingredients. This will help give you a different layer of flavor. 

Does This Soup Freeze Well

Due to the cream cheese and heavy cream in the soup you will find doesn't thaw well. 

The soup has heavy cream and cream cheese. When it is thawed it will kind of curdle due to the heavy cream and cream cheese, so I wouldn't recommend freezing it.

    Would this be good with frozen spinach rather than zuc? I'm not much on zuc.

      Yes, you could just omit the zucchini. There is already kale in the soup, but if you wanted to add spinach, that would be fine, too!

    Sounds great! With only two of us I think I will take out half the soup before adding the cream and cream cheese and freeze it with the directions to add them when it is warmed up after thawing.
