What’s in Cabbage Soup?
There are many versions of cabbage soup, but most contain a variety of vegetables such as onion, carrot, celery, and of course, cabbage. I used tomatoes and white beans to add flavor and give it a bit more protein and fiber. For the seasonings, I used a mixture of Italian seasonings, which give this a lovely taste. This cabbage soup is light but delicious!
Additions and Substitutions
This recipe is flexible, so you can easily make adjustments based on what you have in your fridge. If you have some spinach, add a handful at the end of cooking to give this soup a boost of leafy greens! If you don’t have cannellini beans, you can substitute them with white navy beans or chickpeas. To add bulk to this soup, you can stir in one cup of cooked brown rice at the end of cooking.
Benefits of Cabbage Soup
This cabbage soup is loaded with vegetables, which means it’s also a good source of fiber as well as a variety of vitamins and minerals. This soup is a healthy side dish to add to any meal, or you can enjoy it as a main dish. It’s a great way to clean out the vegetables in your fridge, and this good-for-you soup is delicious on a cold day. The leftovers reheat well, so it’s a great meal prep recipe.
