CABBAGE SOUP | super easy, vegetarian soup for a healthy diet
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Cabbage soup is about as healthy as they come! All you need to do is simmer a bunch of sliced cabbage with mirepoix vegetables, diced tomatoes, vegetable broth, and herbs for an easy and delicious, low calorie meal.
Because cabbage is low in calories, the "cabbage soup diet" has been known to help shed a few pounds. But you know I'm not a fan of detox diets and quick fixes. Your body still needs more nutrients from other foods. So just enjoy this soup for the vegetarian goodness that it offers.
Want to make this cabbage soup recipe a complete meal and "beef it up"? Check out all the ideas I have on the blog post below!

I was born and raised in egypt and the cabbage I grew up with is huge, It's bigger than the large orange pumpkins. When I moved to the US I was shocked at how small the cabbage is here but I was also shocked at how big everything else was😅. Great recipe btw I'm making it for dinner tonight ❤

I love making a soup every Sunday for my work lunches. I sometimes add a little bit of red pepper flakes and a can of chickpeas.

Similar soup, instead of green cabbage, I use red cabbage for a sweeter taste. In addition, when adding spices to Sautee pan I also add 2 tablespoons of smoke sweet or hot paprika and 1 tablespoon of ground turmeric and 1 teaspoon ground cardamom. At the end, instead of lemon juice, I add 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar. Also, for ease, after Sautee the veg, I use a crockpot on high for 4 hours. My recipe, or mother's recipe is more eastern European or from the Slavia areas.

Foods that are high in nutrients and put together in a soup makes it nutrient dense. This cabbage soup is an excellent example of nutrient dense. A carrot is higher in nutrients than say a cucumber. So just find foods that are higher in nutrients and your meal is nutrient dense! I hope this helped!!
I've made several versions of cabbage soup, but this one is my favorite now. Just the right ingredients for a "souper" taste!

I was a lifetime member of Weight Watchers when it first came to our community. We were given a recipe for Suicide Soup, so called when we were so hungry we wanted to give up. It was made with the so called “free” vegetables and broth and tomato juice. It was delicious. This looks like the almost identical recipe. We could eat a bowl of that virtually anytime. I loved it, and I am going to make a pot of it as soon as I go shopping.

It's a flavor enhancer just like salt is. Hence, it's good to add a little sweetener of your choice to savory foods, just as it's good to add a pinch of salt to sweet foods. And no, I don't have a sweet tooth and don't particularly like sweet foods. But I like my savory foods to taste the best they can taste, hence a pinch of sugar. How to season foods 101.
