Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 onion chopped, large
  • 1 carrot sliced
  • 2 celery chopped, stalks
  • 1 lb ham cubed or chopped (or other protein of your choice)
  • 5 cups cabbage about ½ dead, chopped
  • 3 cups broth chicken or vegetable
  • salt to taste
  • black pepper to taste
  • 12 oz cauliflower cooked, frozen
  • ¾ cup half-and-half or milk (or soy milk for a dairy-free version)
  • 2 tablespoon green onion chopped (or another herb)

Instructions

  1. STOVETOP: Heat a dutch pan over medium heat, add oil and saute onion, carrot, and celery until onion is tender (about 4 minutes). Add ham, cabbage, broth, and salt and pepper. Bring to a boil and then reduce heat to medium-low. Cover and let it simmer, covered, for about 10 minutes or until veggies are tender.
  2. Meanwhile, blend the cooked cauliflower with half-and-half until smooth, about 1 minute. Add blended mixture to the cooked veggies in the pan, stir well, and simmer for 5 minutes, uncovered. Adjust the seasonings to taste and serve with chopped green onions on top.
  3. CROCKPOT: Layer the ingredients in your crockpot starting with the cabbage. Pour the broth over the top and add seasonings. Cook on low for 5 to 6 hours. Pour in the cream and blended cauliflower mixture and heat for 30 minutes. Stir and serve.
  4. INSTANT POT: Press the sauté button and let it heat. Add oil and cook onion, carrot, and celery until onion is tender (about 3 minutes). Place the cabbage, vegetables, and ham in your Instant Pot.
  5. Sprinkle on your seasonings. Pour the broth over the top. Seal the lid and turn the valve. Set your pressure cooker or Instant Pot to manual, high pressure, and cook for 5 minutes. After 5 minutes, allow for a natural release for 10 minutes, followed by releasing the rest of the pressure. Add the cream that you blended with the cauliflower and stir. Serve and enjoy.
