What is a Carnivore Diet
Many have asked, “What exactly is a carnivore diet?” Well, imagine your meals revolving entirely around animal products and steering clear of carbohydrates, even vegetables. The focus is on meats, fish, and other animal foods like eggs and certain dairy products.
Initially, I wondered how this diet could sustain someone. But there’s a wealth of health benefits tied to this focus. And it turns out quality beef has all the vitamins and minerals that our bodies need. People choose this diet for its potential to simplify food choices, ease digestive issues, and for its amazing weight loss. Plus, it’s seen by some as a return to a more ‘natural’ way of eating.

And since my husband has lost over 70lbs on Carnivore, I have been spending more time creating dishes like Carnivore Italian Soup. He wants carnivore meals that are full of taste and healthy fats, but none of the carbs!
But I’ve also discovered that as much as I love beef, I like to have a little variety. So my Creamy Carnivore Italian Soup fits the bill with chicken, lots of flavor, but still plenty of meat for my husband.
How to Make Carnivore Italian Soup
Carnivore Italian Soup has both chicken and soup, which balances the creamy but thinner broth. So let’s start by prepping the meat.
When making the soup, you’ll want to cook the chicken first. You have two options, to prep your chicken. One, you can put your chicken breast in a small crockpot with a bit of broth and cook on low. After it is cooked, cube the chicken.
Or you can cube your raw chicken and place in the soup pot and fry in a little butter. When slightly under done, I add the sausage and finish cooking the meats together.

If I have time, I prefer to cook the chicken in the crockpot, and then add to the soup pot as I finish frying the sausage.
To keep my recipe as simple as possible, I use regular sausage and then add Italian seasoning. If you wish to try, you can make the soup with mild Italian sausage. But do make sure to use 1 lb of chicken and 1 lb of sausage. Since the soup broth is a little lighter, you need all the meat to balance the soup broth.

After the meats are cooked, add the Italian seasoning, salt, the cream cheese, and a dash of the chicken broth. I find that the cream cheese will melt more smoothly if you add to the soup pot with just a little broth, before adding the rest of the chicken broth.

After the cream cheese has melted, add your chicken broth, water, and heavy cream.

Taste and add more seasoning if needed! Enjoy!
