Cabbage Soup

I am trying out cabbage soup today with this microwave soup recipe. It is simple and you dot not need a lot of ingredients to cook this soup. It came out just nice. Yummy!

RECIPE BY: HeatherFeather

Ingredients

4 cups green cabbage, chopped or shredded finely
3 tablespoons unsalted butter or margarine
2 onion, chopped (I use Vidalia sweet onions)
1 bunch scallion, chopped (green & white parts, reserving some of the green for garnish)
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon granulated sugar
2 (16 ounce) cans chicken broth or vegetable broth
1 cup skim milk, warmed
1 cup shredded carrot (approx 2 carrots)

Directions

1 You will need a deep, heavy microwave safe cooking dish- such as a round Corningware casserole (no lid).

2 Put butter in casserole and heat for 40 seconds on HIGH heat (or until melted).

3 Add cabbage, onions, scallions, salt, pepper, and sugar.

4 Cook on HIGH 4-6 minutes.

5 Add the broth and cook on HIGH another 15 minutes.

6 Add the warm milk (I remove the soup from the microwave and heat up the milk for 1 minute or so in a glass measure).

7 Stir in the carrots and return to the microwave to heat on HIGH 3-4 minutes.

8 Test for seasonings- add more salt, pepper, or sugar if needed to suit your tastes.

9 You may need to adjust cooking times for your microwave- if cabbage is not tender enough yet, keep microwaving in 3-4 minute intervals on HIGH,stirring, until veggies are cooked to your liking.
