Ingredients
  

  • 1 small head of green cabbage chopped (about 4 cups)
  • 2 carrots diced
  • 2 stalks of celery diced
  • 1 medium onion chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 can 14.5 oz diced tomatoes, with juice
  • 4 cups vegetable broth
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • Salt and pepper to taste

Method
 

  1. Sauté the Aromatics: In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, diced carrots, and celery. Sauté until fragrant and the vegetables are slightly soft, about 5-7 minutes. Stir in minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.
  2. Add Cabbage and Tomatoes: Gradually stir in the chopped cabbage and cook for another 5 minutes until it begins to wilt. Add in the canned tomatoes with their juices.
  3. Pour in the Broth: Carefully pour in the vegetable broth and season with thyme, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil.
  4. Simmer: Reduce the heat, cover, and let simmer for about 20-25 minutes or until the cabbage is tender.
  5. Taste and Adjust: Taste the soup and adjust seasoning if necessary.
  6. Garnish: Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.
