CABBAGE SOUP INGREDIENTS
Made with just 10 simple ingredients, everything you need is here, including the change. Measurements can be found in the chart below.
- Cabbage – Both green and savoy cabbage are good choices.
- Mirepoix – A mixture of onions, carrots and celery, often used as a flavoring for soups.
- Tomatoes – Large tomatoes make this dish even easier.
- Green beans – fresh in season is best, otherwise frozen is fine. They add healthy protein to the soup.
- Potatoes – Yukon, russian, white or red potatoes are fine. Use what you love or have on hand. Swap out the sweet potatoes for more nutrition!
- Seasoning – Rich Italian seasoning makes this soup full of flavor. Add 2 teaspoons per serving—thyme, thyme, and basil. Herbes de Provence is another delicious mix! For another layer of flavor, consider using 1/2 – 1 teaspoon of sweet paprika or smoked paprika for an extra flavor.
- Vegetable Juice – Besides seasoning, good food adds another layer of flavor.
- I use 1/2 – 1 tsp. Vegetables Better Than Bouillon With Water.

TOP TIPS
- Use at least 5 liters. pan. This recipe uses a whole head of cabbage and needs extra space before the cabbage wilts.
- Add more protein. Add 1 can (14 ounces) of baked beans and rinsed white beans (cannellini, kidney beans, or chickpeas) for a balanced recipe, or use 1 1/2 cups green beans.
- We usually use a can of lentils and they are amazing! Sometimes we add sliced veggie sausage at the end of cooking to warm it up a bit. All of these options are delicious!
- Remove or replace potatoes with sweet potatoes.
- Don’t be afraid to add more vegetables.
- Sometimes we remove the potatoes and add 1 lb of green beans. Also, adding broccoli, zucchini or carrots and celery can make this soup last longer, making it especially good for meal prep.
- Add the pasta. Shellfish, elbow, penne, rotini, fusilli, etc. Add 8 ounces of cooked rice, such as
- Absorbs water.
- Serve with homemade bread dipped in juice, vegan cornbread, or naan.
