Cabbage Potato Soup
If you haven’t figured it out by now you will very soon that I LOVE soups during the long cold months of winter. There’s just something about a few delicious ingredients swimming in a delicious broth adding a couple splashes of white or red wine for additional flavor. This soup is pretty easy to make and doesn’t take more than an hour to make which includes simmering time. Thanksgiving is getting close and during all the preparations for the big meal I want easy and nutritious weeknight meals.
As with a few other recipes, this soup was inspired by my mom’s version of cabbage potato soup that she made a couple of times this fall. My version was very similar accept I added garlic and vegetable broth instead of using all water for the liquid. She used italian seasoning, but I didn’t have any therefore I just added a mixture of my own dried herbs which included oregano, basil, thyme and rosemary. All the herbs that I included in this soup are part of the traditional italian seasoning typically found at the grocery store.
As always THANKS so much for visiting. CHEERS TO A HAPPY & HEALTHY HOLIDAY SEASON!
