Tomato Cabbage Soup
Description
Tomato Cabbage Soup combines shredded white cabbage with canned diced tomatoes and tomato paste for a rich, lightly spiced broth. The soup starts by sautéing onions, celery, and carrots until tender, then garlic and seasonings including oregano and cayenne are added to deepen the flavor. After adding tomatoes and vegetable broth, shredded cabbage is simmered until soft, allowing the flavors to meld into a gentle, savory soup with a touch of heat.
The result is a hearty vegetable soup with tender cabbage and a tomato base that is both nourishing and easy to prepare. The mix of aromatic vegetables and warming spices contributes to a balanced flavor profile. This soup suits a light lunch or a starter and can be easily adjusted in thickness with additional broth or water.
Leftover soup can be refrigerated for up to five days and freezes well in individual portions for up to three months. Reheating may require stirring in a bit of water or broth to loosen the consistency. This recipe offers a practical way to use cabbage and pantry staples to create a filling soup.
