This soup recipe is a family favorite and we cook it several times a year. This was served at our local Shoney’s restaurant many years ago before it closed down. (not sponsered) It is a really simple soup to make. You will need the following ingredients:
Recipe:
1 pound of ground chuck
1 clove of garlic, minced
1 onion, diced finely
2 ribs of celery, diced
1 bell pepper, diced
1 15 oz can of kidney beans
1/2 of a medium fresh cabbage head
3 14 oz cans of beef broth
1 quart of diced tomatoes
salt and pepper to taste
Preheat a large dutch oven or stock pot on the stove to medium high heat.

Add the ground chuck and brown, Drain the grease and place the ground beef back into the pot. Add the diced onion, celery, garlic, and bell pepper and cook this until the vegetables have wilted.
Wash and cut the cabbage into bite size pieces making sure to remove the core as this part of the cabbage is not edible.

Add the cabbage, kidney beans, beef broth, tomatoes, tomato paste and salt and pepper to the pot and bring to a low simmer and cook until the cabbage is tender. This will take at least 25 – 30 minutes. Enjoy!
