Hearty Winter Cabbage Soup Recipe

ingredients

1/2 head red cabbage
1/2 head green cabbage
1/2 large Spanish onion, peeled
4 medium carrots, peeled
5 medium potatoes, peeled
1 can (14 ounce size) kidney beans, rinsed
2 cans (28 ounce size) plum tomatoes
1 can tomato paste
1 teaspoon salt
black pepper
basil
parsley
1/4 pound bacon, cooked
2 polish sausage, pre-browned
5 slices ham, diced

directions

Slice cabbage, onions, carrots. Dice potatoes. Saute onions in leftover bacon drippings. Put all ingredients in pot. Add water to cover all (if needed). Cook for 3-4 hours stirring occasionally.

I use LOTS of pepper since this is supposed to be a PEPPERY winter warming, sinus clearing soup.

Add sausage whole or sliced to soup and cook for another 20 minutes before serving. Serve with buttered bread and sour cream dolloped on top (remove sour cream for low cal)
