Expert Tips & FAQs

  • Our cabbage soup recipe is vegetarian-friendly, but you can always add in a protein like bacon, chicken, or crumbled sausage to beef it up. If you don’t want to add meat, try stirring in some white rice, diced potatoes, beans, or chickpeas for an even heartier soup. Add a bay leaf for further flavor in the broth.
  • If you like a thicker broth in your cabbage soup try adding a few tablespoons of tomato paste to the mix. This should help thicken it up. You can also try adding cornstarch or flour. 
  • Low-sodium vegetable or chicken stock work well here. Substitute with homemade stock if desired. 
  • Store leftover cabbage soup in an air-tight container kept in the refrigerator for 4-5 days. Reheat on the stovetop.
  • To freeze, transfer the cooled soup to an air-tight container or large ziptop bag and freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight and reheat on medium-low on the stovetop until warmed through.
