Free Recipe @ Vickie's Recipes: Miracle Cabbage Soup (Also a base for Crab Soup!) (Diet: Soups)

Miracle Cabbage Soup (Also a base for Crab Soup!): Submitted by: Vickie | Date Added: 28 Apr 2015
Listed in: Diet / Diet: Soups Ingredients

1 head of cabbage, sliced & chopped
5 carrots, chopped (I use a bag of whole baby carrots)
3 onions, chopped
2 cans whole tomatoes, with liquid (if you want Spicy, use Rotel!)
1 can green beans, drained
1 c zucchini or yellow squash
3- 6 c beef or chicken broth ( or combination of both)
1-2 c water
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 package dry onion soup mix
salt, pepper, basil, thyme & oregano to taste
2-3 whole pepperrinci and a little juice, or, 2-3 pickled jalapeños and a little juice, optional

(1-lb of crab meat and additional veggies if your making this into crab soup. See updated note in cooking instructions below.)

Saute onions, garlic, & carrots with Pam for about 5 minutes. Add remaining ingredients. Simmer for 5-10 minutes.

(Cook's Note: This is an 80's recipe, also known as TJ's Miracle Soup. Each as much of this soup as you want, every day! If you want to spice it up, replace 1 can of tomatoes with a can of Rotel. I also add a kick by throwing in some pickled slices of jalapeño juice and a couple of whole pepperencinni. You might also want to check out the recipes for Miracle Mexican Soup and Asian Soup!

Update note: As of September 2017, I learned a new secret to make 'this soup even better and not taste like the diet soup! 1. Take out several ladled scoops of veggies without any broth. Purée it and add it back to the remaining soup. This gives it a thicker texture which I like. 2) Turn it into something really special by turning it into crab soup! I added drained Mexican corn, extra cut green beans, a lb of lump crab meat and Old Bay seasoning. I wanted to keep the carbs down so I didn't add potatoes, but you can add them if you like. Just add the crab last and before you do so, be sure to purée some of the veggies as in above directions for better texture and flavor! Enjoy.)
