Cabbage Soup
ingredients
- ½ head cabbage, shredded or chopped
- ½ onions, chopped
- 1 can of diced tomatoes (Rotel)
- 1 green pepper
- ½ stalk of celery
- 2 large carrots, chopped
- 4 cups vegetable broth
- ½ cup water
- 1 package Lipton onion soup mix
- black pepper
- any fresh herbs or spices of your choice (I like to use oregano and garlic powder)
instructions
- Chop all vegetables to the size of your choice. For vegetable chopping in soup, I always say the smaller the better, as it has been proven that the more vegetables are chopped, the more nutrients are released.
- Place all the chopped vegetables and Lipton onion soup mix in a big pot.
- Cover with water and vegetable broth and stir together.
- Bring to a boil, then boil gently for 10 minutes.
- Next, add in your pepper and spices. Cover, reduce heat and simmer until all the vegetables are soft, but would still have a little crunch at the bite.
- Eat up :)
notes
Cabbage soup is a great soup to eat anytime. The ingredients are practically all negative calorie foods, so you can eat as much as you like without having to count calories! However, I don’t recommend the Cabbage Soup fad diet – you still need to have fresh, raw vegetables for a healthy life. Although this soup is delicious, when it comes to vegetables… raw is best!
