Seriously, this keto hamburger soup tastes like you threw a burger in a blender. It’s got all the savory, juicy, fatty, saucy, tangy taste. My husband was a huge fan. He even says to remind you all to make a double batch! This recipe creates two large bowls… which apparently wasn’t enough for my household, so you have been warned!
Tastes Like A Whole30 Approved Whopper
If you’re on a Whole30 or just dairy-free this soup is for you. Bonus, it’s free of tomatoes – which is great for those of us who don’t eat nightshades. This soup truly tastes like a burger and it won’t cause bloat or inflammation. It’s a one-pot recipe that’s true comfort food. Grass-fed beef, crispy bacon, and yes pickled, onions and lettuce too! Trust me on the toppings, it’s so worth it!
Ingredients
- Grass fed ground beef: I like 85% lean from Butcher Box.
- Primal Kitchen mayo or homemade mayo, but you want a healthy mayo.
- Dijon mustard
- Pickle Brine: just trust this, it really adds that legit flavor.

Through this move, despite all my efforts, I am seeing some inflammation creep in. This has me livid. I’ve been inflammation and flare-free for a long time. This nightshade and dairy-free, mostly nut-free, paleo but also keto with a splash of Whole30 and AIP mixed in way of eating I have created for myself has been the most transformative stuff ever. So I’m kinda mad about this hot, red, tender knuckle on my left hand.
I am also aware that STRESS IS A KILLER. Sometimes there will be things you can’t control and I just have to cope. One thing is for sure, my eating habits remain unchanged. This keto hamburger soup is just the kind of meal I would eat anytime. Its packed with goodness, it’s anti-inflammatory, and it’s tasty AF.
So, red spot or not… I’m going to keep calm and carry on. Trust the process and the work I’ve put in. Trust that once things settle down, so will my stress levels and inflammatory symptoms. Besides, my worst day today is still better than my best day 3 years ago!
What Are Nightshades?
Tomatoes, Potatoes, Eggplant, and any kind of pepper (not peppercorns, but chili pepper, paprika etc). If you hadn’t noticed, I don’t cook with them ever. They are very inflammatory to me. I haven’t had them in three years. It IS doable. My cookbook, Made Whole is also nightshade-free.

Absolutely delicious! I have made this soup at least 10 times and I’m always amazed at how good it is. Even my husband who can eat anything asks me to make this.

I’ve been looking at this recipe for weeks. Made it today. You’re right. Should have made a double batch. HTF did you come up with this combination of ingredients. It creates SUCH a flavorful soup. OMGOODNESS, it’s now on rotation in this kitchen. Thank you!

YUMMY!!! Thanks so much for this recipe and the weeks menu ideas. I should have listened and made a double batch! Wanted to get some extra veggies included so added chopped mushrooms and chopped red cabbage to the sauté mixture. We use a ton of pickled pepper rings, so used those since we had no dill pickles. So different and really pleased the tastebuds.

This recipe is wonderful. My wife doesn’t eat dairy and I’m on keto so sometimes it’s a little difficult to fine recipes that work for both of us but this nails it. Also, I can sprinkle a little cheese on top and make a cheeseburger soup which is great.
