Mock of Disneyland's Potato Soup Keto Friendly and Low Carb
Sometimes you just need something that is going to be yummy and satisfy your potato craving while getting in a hefty amount of fat in your diet with very few carbs.  I was a huge skeptic in using turnips or radishes as a potato alternative.  I'm so glad I didn't back down and you will be completely satisfied as well.  I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as I did putting it together for you. 
This is a mock up, potato Free version of the warm and hearty soup from the Carnation Cafe at Disneyland Resort it is just the thing when the days turn gray and chilly. It’s pure comfort food.

  5. Over medium-high heat bring the soup to a simmer and cooke for 25 minutes or until the turnips and radishes are soft.  Mash some of them for thicker creamier texture.  Adding whipping cream and simmer for 5 minutes

If you'd like to decrease the fat macro, use half the heavy whipping cream and 2 extra cups of broth.  Personally, I'm more satisfied when the fat content is high even if I go over my macro allowance during the day, but seriously.  One serving of this soup is so satisfying I'm good.  It's a great pre or post fast meal.

What is shredded chided? Did you mean shredded chicken or cheddar?

Yes, Tracy, it’s supposed to be cheddar. One day, I may have a chance to correct it. #busymommalife

I made this a couple of days ago. My husband smiled the whole time he was eating this. It was so good! Who needs potatoes when you have turnips and radishes? Who know?
I shared it with my keto sister and she keeps sending me happy emojis. Thanks for sharing!
