Cabbage is a great leafy green to use in soups as it holds up well under a simmer and keeps beautifully in leftovers. Paired with tomato paste and some of the favorite products of a late summer or early fall harvest, this recipe is a lovely option for making a garden-based meal towards the end of the season.

Tip: If you like your cabbage soup to have more tomato, reduce the broth by a cup and add a can of undrained, no-salt-added diced tomatoes with the broth.

Ingredients

  • ½ yellow onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • ½ cup chopped carrot
  • 1 Tbsp. tomato paste
  • 3 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
  • 2 cups chopped cabbage
  • ½ cup green beans
  • ½ tsp. basil
  • ½ tsp. oregano
  • Pepper to taste
  • ½ cup chopped zucchini

Directions

  1. Spray a large, heavy-bottomed pot with non-stick cooking spray. Sauté onions, carrots, and garlic until onions are translucent (4-5 minutes).
  2. Stir in tomato paste and cook until fragrant (1-2 minutes). Add broth and stir to deglaze.
  3. Add cabbage, green beans, basil, oregano, and pepper. Simmer until all vegetables are tender (10-15 minutes). Add the zucchini and simmer until tender (5-7 minutes).
