½ green cabbage
2 carrots
2 ripe tomatoes
1 bell pepper
1 onion
2 garlic cloves
1 liter (about 4 cups) of water
Salt, pepper, and your favorite seasonings (like turmeric, ginger, or mild curry powder)
Cabbage is known for its digestion-boosting and anti-inflammatory properties. Carrots and tomatoes provide antioxidants and a natural touch of sweetness, while garlic and onion bring depth and immunity support. This soup fills you up without weighing you down.
Roughly chop all your veggies. No need to be precise — keep it casual and quick.
In a large pot, gently sauté the garlic and onion in a splash of water or a little olive oil, just until fragrant.
Add the rest of the vegetables, pour in the water, season to your taste, and bring it all to a boil. Reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 30 minutes.
Want it smooth? Blend it. Prefer texture? Leave the chunks. It’s up to you.
