Instructions:

1. In a large pot or Dutch oven, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon from the pot and set it aside on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease. Once cooled, crumble the bacon into small pieces.
2. In the same pot with the bacon grease, add the diced onion, carrots, and celery. Season with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. Cook until the vegetables are tender, stirring occasionally.
3. Pour in the chicken broth and heavy whipping cream, then add the chopped broccoli florets. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat.
4. Once simmering, reduce the heat to low and let the soup continue to simmer for about 15-20 minutes or until the broccoli is tender, stirring occasionally.
5. Add the shredded sharp cheddar cheese and shredded Gouda cheese to the pot, along with the butter. Stir slowly until the cheese is melted and well incorporated into the soup.
6. Let the soup simmer for an additional 10 minutes or until it reaches your desired consistency, stirring occasionally.
7. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
8. Ladle the soup into bowls and top each serving with the crumbled bacon and extra shredded cheese, if desired.
9. Serve hot and enjoy your comforting homemade broccoli cheddar soup, perfect for a cold rainy evening on the keto diet!
