How Do You Make Cabbage Soup For The Cabbage Soup Diet?
The cabbage soup diet is a quick way to lose weight. Though NO ONE advocates doing this diet long term, it can be a jump start to a more long term diet plan. It can help you through a dieting plateau or simply help you lose a few difficult pounds. Remember, no diet should be done without the consent of a licensed doctor. If you are going to follow the cabbage soup diet, here’s how to make the soup. Step 1 Spray a large stock pot or Dutch oven with cooking spray. Dice onions and sauté until they are translucent. Step 2 Cut peppers, carrots, celery, mushrooms and cabbage into bite sized pieces and add them to the pot with 12 cups of water (or 8 cups water and 48oz of V-8 juice) and the tomatoes. Step 3 Add Lipton soup mix, bouillon cubes and any seasonings like salt, pepper, garlic powder or cumin. Step 4 Cook covered on low heat for about two hours.
