Cabbage Fat-burning Soup (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ Veggies

01 - 1 diced onion
02 - 2 minced garlic cloves
03 - 2 celery stalks, sliced
04 - 2 peeled and diced carrots
05 - 1 can (14.5 oz) of undrained diced tomatoes
06 - 1 medium-sized cabbage, roughly chopped

→ Broths & Oils

07 - 4 cups chicken or veggie stock
08 - 1 tablespoon of olive oil
09 - 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, optional

→ Spices

10 - A teaspoon of ground cumin
11 - A teaspoon of turmeric powder
12 - Half a teaspoon of paprika
13 - Half a teaspoon of black pepper
14 - Salt as you like it
15 - 1 tablespoon of freshly chopped parsley, optional

# Instructions:

01 - Warm up the oil, toss in onion, celery, and carrots, and cook for around 5-7 minutes to soften them. Add the garlic and stir for another couple of minutes.
02 - Throw in the cabbage and mix in the spices so everything gets coated nicely.
03 - Combine the broth with the canned tomatoes, then bring it to a light boil. Lower the heat, stick a lid on, and let it simmer for 25-30 minutes, or until the cabbage softens.
04 - Add some salt and, if you like, a splash of lemon juice. Top it with fresh parsley, if that suits your taste.

# Notes:

01 - Feel free to add tofu, beans, or cooked chicken for extra protein.
02 - Store it in the fridge for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
03 - Swap with red cabbage if you'd like a pop of color.
