Apple Cabbage Soup with Bacon(keto)

A simple pressure cooker soup that only takes 5 minutes to cook and is low enough in carbs to be considered keto. Anyone who has played the game The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim will probably recognize apple cabbage soup. This adds bacon to give it a great flavor. Low in calories but surprisingly satiating. Can be served over bread for a non-keto version with more calories.

Ingredients:

• 3 slices bacon, chopped
• 60g(2 oz) Granny Smith apple, diced
• 100g(3.25 oz) green cabbage, cut into big chunks
• 2 cups chicken or vegetable broth or stock
• ¼ tsp smoked paprika
• ¼ tsp mustard powder (or ½ tsp Dijon mustard)
• A pinch of cinnamon
• A pinch of fresh-grated nutmeg
• 1 all-spice berry, ground with a mortar and pestle
• ¼ tsp dried thyme
• 1 bay leaf
• ½ tsp lemon juice
• Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

• Cook Bacon: Sauté the bacon in the pressure cooker on the sauté setting until fully cooked. Leave the fat in.

• Add the rest of the ingredients: Add apple, cabbage, broth, and all the spices. Adjust salt and pepper to taste.

• Cook: Cook on high pressure for 5 minutes. Release the steam vent. Make any final adjustments to the seasoning and the soup is ready to eat.
