Directions

1. In a large stockpot, add the chopped cabbage, carrots, peeled tomatoes, water, parsley, and celery. Stir to combine.

3. Once boiling, reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 45–60 minutes, or until vegetables are tender.
4. Adjust seasoning to taste. You can also lightly mash some of the vegetables for a thicker texture.
5. Remove from heat and let the soup cool slightly before serving.
6. Store leftovers in the refrigerator in airtight containers for up to 5 days or freeze in portions for up to 1 month.
7. Reheat gently on the stove or in the microwave before serving.
