DEFINITELY MY KIND OF SOUP!! A couple small changes when I make mine- I will use a box of low sodium or salt free beef BONE broth and omit the teaspoon of salt. 
I can't wait to get to the store to pick up my ingredients! Thank you Harpa!

My first thought when I hear cabbage soup is the Weight Watcher version for weight loss.🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

There are several recipes for this lighter type of cabbage soup online.  I have eaten it for years.  It is a good way to get my veggies in!

Low calorie veggies cooked in no fat beef broth or chicken broth.

I have never seen or tried this soup, but worked with a man who ate it one winter and lost a BUNCH of weight. It works with exercise! Our entire division was stunned at his weight loss. 

ETA: I didn't realize it had the tomato sauce and beans in it, as well. It is a healthy soup. But wouldn't one get bored with that MUCH soup?

@BirkiLady    I did happen to see some other recipes, and I think if you look around on line, you'll find some w/o the tomato sauce.  Not sure, haven't had that much time to look yet, but you might get lucky. 

[Love to read]

This is one of my very favorite soups.  I know that brown sugar and vinegar may sound like odd ingredients, but they absolutely MAKE this soup!  nstead of buying a head of cabbage, I just buy bagged coleslaw.

• 1 pound lean ground turkey
• 1 medium onion, chopped
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• 4 cups chopped cabbage
• 2 medium carrots, sliced
• 1 can (28 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained
• 3/4 cup water
• 1 tablespoon brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon white vinegar
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper

Directions

• 1. Cook the turkey, onion and garlic in a large saucepan over medium heat until meat is no longer pink, 5-7 minutes, breaking up turkey into crumbles; drain.
• 2. Add the remaining ingredients. Bring to a boil; cover and simmer until the vegetables are tender, 12-15 minutes.

I have no recipe, but it starts with onions and celery sauteed, garlic, cabbage diced tomatoes (or better yet whole peeled canned tomatoes in juice and I chop them up in the can with scissors), red bell pepper, a little corn sometimes, chicken or beef broth, Italian seasoning, salt and fresh ground pepper, 2 teaspoons of good vinegar, and a splash of hot sauce.

Mushrooms (saute with onions and celery) are good too.

Spanish Bean Soup with Cabbage

3 LARGE cans of chick peas (Garbanzos)
1 medium onion, diced

Garlic to taste (4-5 cloves), peeled and diced
Olive Oil
1 meaty ham bone or 2-3 ham hocks with meat
(*or 1/2 lb. ham, cut into bite-sized chunks)
Chorizo Sausage, sliced (I use 2 - 4, depending on their sizes)
2-3 large potatoes, peeled, bite-sized cubes

Cabbage (I use 1/2 of a small, tightly packed head), sliced really thin!

Salt and Pepper, to taste

Sazon or Vigo seasoning, 2-3 pkgs.

In a large soup pot, saute the onions and garlic in a little olive oil, until translucent. Remove from the oil and set aside.

Add the ham bone/hock to the pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil and cook until the ham falls off the bone. Remove the bones and ham from the water. Cut ham into bite-sized pieces.

To the ham stock, add the ham, beef, onion, garlic, and beans, chorizo and potatoes. Bring to a boil. Turn the heat down and simmer.

Add the Sazon...and simmer until the soup thickens. Add salt and pepper to taste.

Add cabbage and cook until the cabbage is softened.

Enjoy!
