Simple Cabbage & Bean Soup with Pork

Just a basic soup I make from time to time. Lots of healthful veg, beans for protein, fiber, and minerals, and a little meat for flavor.
An easy, inexpensive, balanced meal in a bowl. All the better with some crusty bread for dipping!
Cooking Instructions
- 1
In a large pot or stockpot, bring the oil up to medium high heat and brown the pork.
- 2
Add onions, carrots, celery, and garlic and saute for 2 or 3 minutes until the onions just start to turn translucent.
- 3
Add bay leaf, thyme, and tomato paste (or ketchup), and give everything few good stirs. (This will give the tomato a chance to caramelize a bit.)
- 4
Add liquid, salt, vinegar, and cabbage, give everything another few good stirs, turn the heat down to medium, and cook, covered, for 15 to 20 minutes.
- 5
Turn heat down to medium low, add beans, stir them in, and cook, covered, for another 20 to 25 minutes. Adjust seasoning before the last 5 minutes of this cooktime to give all flavors a chance to meld.

Enjoy! :)
