This classic cabbage soup is a staple for anyone seeking a light, nutrient-dense meal that doesn't compromise on flavour. Packed with a rainbow of fresh vegetables including carrots, green peppers, and celery, this vegan dish is naturally low in fat and incredibly versatile. The combination of simmered greens and tinned tomatoes creates a savoury base that feels both comforting and cleansing, making it an ideal choice for a healthy lunch or a light evening meal.

Customising this soup is easy, allowing you to keep your palate interested throughout the week. You can enjoy it as a rustic, chunky broth or blend it into a smooth, velvety puree. For a bright finish, add a splash of balsamic vinegar or a squeeze of fresh lime before serving. Topping the bowl with sliced spring onions or fragrant coriander adds a final layer of freshness to this homemade favourite.

How to make The Cabbage Soup Diet

Prep all the ingredients as directed in the recipe list.

Put all the vegetables in a big soup pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to medium and boil gently for 10 minutes. Cover, reduce the heat to low, and simmer until all the vegetables are soft. Stir in the black pepper and chopped herbs.

This soup can be served hot or cold. It can be pureed or partially pureed to vary textures. It can be seasoned differently for variety, with balsamic vinegar, lemon or lime juice, different fresh herbs, or chopped spring onions.
