Ingredients

  • 1 large onion, chopped

  • 2 bell peppers (any colour), chopped
  • 1 medium head of cabbage, chopped
  • 1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes
  • 6 cups vegetable broth
  • 1–2 cloves garlic, minced

Instructions

  1. In a large soup pot, add the chopped onion, carrots, celery, and bell peppers. Sauté for a few minutes until slightly softened (optional if using oil).

  3. Stir in the chopped cabbage and canned diced tomatoes with their juice.
  4. Pour in the vegetable broth and bring to a boil.
  5. Reduce heat and simmer for 20–30 minutes until cabbage and carrots are tender.
  6. Season to taste with salt, pepper, or herbs as desired.

Notes

  • Swap vegetable broth for chicken broth for extra depth (if not vegan).
  • Add zucchini, spinach, or green beans for extra vegetables.
  • Include red pepper flakes, paprika, or cumin for added spice.
  • For more protein, stir in cooked shredded chicken or beans (note: raises calorie count).
  • Make in a slow cooker after sautéing veggies—cook on low for 4–6 hours.
