Country Cabbage Soup is a wonderfully healthy way to enjoy cabbage. Lean ground beef is combined with cabbage, stewed tomatoes, onion and celery plus seasonings to make a filling low carb meal that is low in fat and calories.
Cabbage is one of my favorite vegetables and it is super low in calories. One cup of chopped cabbage has just 21 calories. Plus cabbage is a great source of Vitamin K, Vitamin B6, and Vitamin C.
I find cabbage has a delicious buttery taste when it is cooked down and it is the perfect complement to ground beef in this meaty soup.
This is a low carb soup that gets plenty of protein from 2 pounds of lean ground beef. The protein will help keep you full between meals.
You want to cook Country Cabbage Soup for at least 30 to 40 minutes. The longer it simmers, the more flavor it develops.
This soup has only 127 calories per serving and it makes a delicious lunch or dinner. It is packed with nutrients and is good for Weight Watchers, Paleo, or Whole30.

Is this recipe correct?. Because it appears that there is more then a cup & a half of liquid in this dish
It is correct. The cans of tomatoes give it some additional liquid. If you want more liquid, you can add an extra cup of broth.
