The cabbage soup diet is a very low calorie restriction diet. so you'll be eating much fewer calories than you and ordinarily consume on a daily basis. But, beware the diet should not befallen for more than seven days at any one time. The Soup consists of the following ingredients.
6 large green onions, 1 or 2 cubes of bouillon (optional),1 or 2 cans of tomatoes (diced or whole), 3 Carrots, 1 Container (10 oz. or so) Mushrooms, 1 48oz can V8 juice (optional), 1 bunch of celery, half a head of cabbage, 1 package Lipton soup mix, 2 green peppers, Season to taste with salt, pepper, parsley, curry, garlic powder, etc.
Here is how you should prepare it:
Slice the green onions, put them in a pot and begin to saute with a little cooking spray. Then cut the stems off the green peppers, halve them, then take the seeds and membranes out. Chop the green peppers into pieces that are no bigger than bite-size and add them to the pot. Next take cabbage remove the outer leaves, cut into small bite size pieces too and add them to the pot.
Clean the carrots, chop into bite size pieces, and add to pot. Cut the mushrooms into thick slices, add to pot. If you would like a spicy soup, add a small amount of curry or cayenne pepper now.
You can use beef or chicken bouillon cubes for seasonings. These have all the salt and flavors you will need. Use about 12 cups of water (or 8 cups and the V8 juice), cover and put heat on low. Let soup cook for a long time - two hours works well. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
