Organic Cabbage Soup
Forget what you know about cabbage soup. It’s not just something you eat when you’re trying to lose a lot of weight fast. Organic cabbage soup can make a hearty, filling vegetarian meal, perfect for dinner on chilly fall or winter evenings or for reheating as a weekday lunch. Add a much or as little spice to the soup, such as black pepper or chili flakes, as you like. If you prefer a non-spicy soup, just leave the peppers out and substitute herbs, such as oregano and thyme, instead.
