Cabbage soup is a hearty and flavorful soup that is made with cabbage, vegetables, and often a protein such as ground beef or beans.
It is typically made with a broth or tomato-based base and is seasoned with herbs and spices.
Some variations of cabbage soup may include the addition of cream or milk to give it a creamy texture. This type of cabbage soup is often referred to as “creamy cabbage soup.”
It is a comforting and satisfying meal that can be enjoyed on its own or paired with a sandwich or salad.
