Cabbage Soup (Gluten and MSG Free)

Cabbage soup has become one of my favourites.  It can be such a heart soup with lots of flavour.  We just finished getting out the last of the cabbages and carrots from the garden so this has been a great way to enjoy them.


Ingredients

• 1/2 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 diced onion
• 3 minced garlic
• 1 pound grass fed ground beef
• 4 cups vegetable, beef or even chicken broth*
• 2-3 cups peeled and diced tomatoes
• 4-5 cups diced cabbage
• 2-3 cups diced carrots
• 1/2 cup diced celery
• 1 teaspoon sea salt
• 1/2 cup brussel sprouts (optional)
• cayenne pepper to taste
• ground pepper to taste

Directions

1. In a large pot heat oil.  Fry onion for 5 minutes until soft.  Add garlic and beef.  
2. Cook beef until browned on the outside.
3. Add all remaining ingredients.
4. Bring to a boil and then simmer for 30 minutes or until vegetables are tender.
5. Serve.

*check broth ingredients, most store bought broths have MSG hidden in their ingredients
