[recipe*] Cabbage Soup

[Guest guest]

This is a great economical soup. Serve it with some

warm crusty bread and you will feel warmed right

through. I like to add a few shakes of hot sauce to

my bowl. It is like a simple country soup from Russia.

You just can't mess it up so feel free to add other

good veggies you have in the pantry.

 

Cabbage Soup

 

2 cups chopped onions

1 Tbs. olive oil

2 cups diced carrots

2 cups diced potatoes

2 cups diced celery

8 cups no-chicken broth

1 large head green cabbage, cored and chopped

1/4 tsp. caraway seeds

Garlic powder to taste

Salt and pepper to taste

Sour cream (optional)

 

In a large soup kettle, saute the onions in the olive oil until

soft. Add carrots, potatoes, celery and broth. Bring to a boil

and reduce heat and simmer covered for 30 minutes or until

vegetables are tender. Add cabbage and sprinkle with

caraway seeds. Do not stir. Cover and cook another

5 minutes or so. Stir and add seasonings. Cook for an

additional 5 minutes. Serve garnished with sour cream if

desired.

Yield: 6 to 8 servings
