How to Make Low Carb Cheesy Cauliflower Soup in a Slow Cooker
Notes on Low Carb Crock Pot Cheesy Cauliflower Soup
- We like to use our 6 quart multicooker to make saute the mushrooms in the same unit that we slow cook in, however you can do that step in a skillet and use a traditional 6 quart.
- We used xanthan gum at the end of this recipe to thicken the soup without increasing the carb count. It is an optional ingredient. You can make the soup without it.
- All slow cookers cook differently, so cooking times are always a basic guideline. Recipes should always be tested first in your own slow cooker and time adjusted as needed.

- As with any of our recipes, carb counts, calorie counts and nutritional information varies greatly. As a result, your nutritional content depends on which products you choose to use when cooking this dish. The auto-calculation is just an automated estimate and should NOT be used for specific dietary needs.
