I was at one of our local coffee shops and ordered Cabbage Roll Soup. Although it was good, I knew it was lacking something.
So I experimented yesterday.
This is what I did, and it turned out SO good, so I had to share. Not to mention, ZERO fat, high fibre, my kids went for seconds, and we were all filled to the brim.
1 lb of extra lean minced turkey or chicken
1 onion chopped
3/4 green cabbage thinly sliced
saute all of above in a large pot. The liquid from the meat and the onions was enough to help it saute without adding oil.
Add 2 cans of diced tomatoes with herbs
1/2 bottle of beer
1 can of tomato soup ( low sodium, and 1 can of water)
1/2 tsp dill
1 tsp oregano
1 tsp basil
2 tsp pepper
1 tsp salt ( or to taste)
then I cleaned out my fridge and added sliced mushrooms and carrots. ( you can add any vegetable you want, the more the better)
I let it simmer most of the afternoon.
added 2 tsp of minced garlic
1 cup of minute rice.
Simmer 30 min longer...adding the rest of the beer if needed.
Dished into bowl, topped with freshly grated Parmesan Cheese. Served with Beer Bread that I made in my bread machine. What an easy, HEALTHY meal.
YUM!
thank-fully I made enough so I can have some leftovers for lunch today...can't wait!
