HEALTH BENEFITS OF CABBAGE
Jam-packed with nutrients: These leaves have a mighty dose of Vitamin C, along with fiber, potassium, magnesium, manganese, and a variety of other nutrients.
Loaded with antioxidants: phytonutrients, which are natural compounds that help prevent damage to your body’s cells. With it’s strong strong anti-inflammatory agents such as sulforaphane and glutamine, cabbage can reduce irritation, pain, fever, and other bodily disorders.
Cabbage has 1 gram of fiber for every 10 calories. That helps fill you up, in a good way. It also keeps you regular, and it could help lower your “bad” (LDL) cholesterol and control your blood sugar.
CABBAGE SOUP VARIATIONS
You can add shredded chicken, diced baked chicken breast, carnitas, pulled pork, beef chunks, ground turkey! For a vegetarian option, you can add in white beans, chickpeas, or lentils (just add a bit more broth for cooking).
Whatever veggies you love, toss it in! A few favorites I love to add are bell peppers, zucchini slices, or leafy greens such as kale. For an even heartier soup, add in chopped potato chunks or cooked rice.
A dash of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes will add just the right amount of heat. For a bigger herbal pop, add in fresh rosemary and thyme. Stir in some tomato paste to make the tomato broth a bit thicker.
