Healthy Cabbage Soup
Description
This recipe begins by boiling an ample volume of low-sodium vegetable broth to quickly cook sliced carrots, parsnips, and chopped celery until tender. Tomato paste can be added to deepen the flavor. Then, chopped cabbage, grated garlic, chopped white onion, and canned petite tomatoes are introduced, simmering gently until the cabbage softens.
Lemon juice adds brightness while chili powder brings a gentle warmth without overwhelming the natural vegetable flavors. Seasoned with salt and pepper to taste, the result is a light, nourishing broth with distinct vegetable notes and a touch of acidity.
Healthy Cabbage Soup works well as a starter or light meal, delivering nutrition and gentle savoriness without heaviness. It can be enjoyed on its own or alongside bread or a simple protein.
