CABBAGE SOUP
Cabbage is one of my favorite foods, cooked or even raw. I often make my Cabbage Roll Soup, but this creamy cabbage soup recipe is my favorite. The veggies and cream taste so gosh darn good together. Make it for dinner tonight, you will get hooked too!
I prefer to serve my soup with crusty bread because I am a dipper. But, you could serve it with crackers or nothing for a side dish. It’s a hearty and filling soup without anything alongside.
