Low Carb Italian Wedding Soup Recipe

One of my favorite soups to eat is Italian wedding soup. Unfortunately, I found out, in my early 30’s, that I have a gluten allergy. So I haven’t had Italian wedding soup in a LONG time! Over the years, I have developed a low carb lifestyle. First, I did the Keto diet for about three years. However, due to issues out of my control, I can no longer follow the Keto lifestyle. So I am continuing my low carb eating, but with Weight Watchers (WW). I came up with this low carb Italian wedding soup recipe that is perfect on WW.

Calories 110 kcal

Ingredients

For Meatballs

• 1 lb Ground Venison
• 1 large Egg
• 1 tsp Garlic Powder
• 1 tsp Onion Powder
• 1/2 tsp Basil

For Soup

• 8 Cups Chicken Broth
• 1 1/2 Cup Spinach
• 2 - 2 1/2 Cups Riced Cauliflower
• 1 Med. Celery Stalk
• 1/2 Cup Carrots
• 2 tsp Garlic Powder
• 2 tsp Onion Powder
• Salt to taste
• Pepper to taste

Instructions

1. Mix the ingredients for the meatballs and set aside for a moment. Place the chicken broth and seasonings in a large stock pot and bring to a boil. 

2. While waiting for the broth to boil, make your mini meatballs. I used about a tablespoon of ground venison for each meatball. 

3. As your broth is beginning to boil, add the carrots, riced cauliflower and celery. Once the broth is at a full boil, add the meatballs one by one. Turn your heat down so it's a slow boil for 30 minutes. 

4. Check to make sure your meatballs are done. Add the spinach and allow to cook for about 2-3 minutes longer.

Low Carb Italian Wedding Soup

You guys, this low carb Italian wedding soup is so good! If you are following Weight Watchers, one serving of this soup is 1 point! Keto followers, I put the info in my favorite carb counting app, carb manager, and you can see the macro information below. Obviously, like any recipe, you will want to recheck with the specific ingredients you use.

I had quite a difficult time finding the cauliflower crumbles. My local Target store used to sell them. I wish they still did. The type of cauliflower crumbles they sold were slightly bigger pieces, which is what I really wanted for this recipe. However, I used what I could find. I would not use frozen cauliflower rice. It may be too mushy in the soup.
