Report
This keto cabbage soup is a hearty, satisfying meal for colder days. It is a naturally low carb German cabbage soup recipe that I learned from my mother. This flavourful soup takes only 5 minutes to prep and it is just 7.3g net carbs.

Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a non-stick pan or skillet on medium heat. Add ½ of the olive oil and sauté the cubed kielbasa sausage for 3 - 4 minutes until crisp. Remove from the pan and set aside.
- Add the remaining oil to the pan and sauté the diced onion, carrot and celery for 3 - 4 minutes until the onions are translucent. Add the minced garlic for 1 further minute.
- Now add the shredded cabbage, salt and pepper and saute for 1 - 2 minutes.
- Pour in the chicken broth. Add the juniper berries, bay leaves and thyme. Simmer on a low heat for 20 - 25 mins uncovered. Add in the kielbasa for the last 5 minutes of the cooking time.
- Stir through the apple cider vinegar or lemon juice and adjust the seasoning to taste. Scatter with fresh parsley to serve.
Notes
- 1g net carbs per portion. Makes 4 portions.
- Halving the amount of carrots reduces the net carbs to 7.4g per portion.
- Shred the cabbage on a mandoline slicer or finely with a sharp knife for the best texture. Option to just chop, but you will need to cook it for 5 minutes more.
- Store the soup in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days or freeze it in individual containers for up to 3 months. Reheat it on the stovetop or in the microwave.
