Cabbage Soup is a hearty and healthy vegetable soup made with cabbage, carrots, celery, tomatoes, and flavorful herbs. Quick to make and perfect for a comforting weeknight dinner.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 yellow onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 8 cups low sodium chicken broth (or vegetable broth)
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon coarse ground black pepper, or to taste
  • 1/2 head cabbage, chopped in 1 ½ inch chunks
  • 4 large carrots, peeled and chopped
  • 2 ribs celery, sliced thinly
  • 14.5 ounces stewed tomatoes (or just under two cups fresh cut tomatoes)

Instructions

1. In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add in the onions and garlic and cook until the onions are translucent, about 3–5 minutes.

2. Add the broth, salt, pepper, thyme, cabbage, carrots, celery, and tomatoes. Stir well to combine.

3. Simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are tender and flavors meld together.

4. Serve warm and enjoy.

Notes

For a vegetarian version, use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth.

To adjust serving size, change the yield and ingredients will scale accordingly.

Use stewed tomatoes for richer flavor or substitute with fresh chopped tomatoes.

This soup stores well and can be refrigerated for up to 4 days or frozen for longer storage.
