I sent this recipe as a reply but so many requested it I thought I had better add it here. It is "Cabbage Soup".
Directions
Add:
Bring to a boil and simmer 45 minutes
Add: two tomatoes (or lg. can diced)
Cook another 15 min and then I put either sliced pork steak or sliced chicken breast (again bite sized)
And simmer another 20 minutes. It is so good. I make it so often that I add any other veggies like sliced broccoli stalks, bag of spinach, container of sliced mushrooms (just any leftovers you have) along right at the beginning. Don't taste after adding the raw meat, until the meat gets cooked. This was a lose weight soup and I'd eat it any time of day. My husband likes me to add cannel beans (drained ) and elbow mac cooked then it's like a minestroni. Hope you like it!
