I had this soup a couple of months ago when someone brought it to our Monday Lunch Club. I got the recipe and made it yesterday - to great acclaim from family. It's easy and really good.
Cabbage Roll Soup
1 lb of lean ground beef browned and drained of fat
I medium chopped onion
1 medium chopped celery rib
3 cloves of garlic minced (or garlic powder to taste)
1 package of cole slaw mix
3/4 cups of uncooked rice (not Instant Rice)
6 cups of water (plus extra)
powdered beef stock to taste (I used a couple of tablespoons plus a bit more)
pepper
Aprox 3 cups of tomato juice
1 can of tomato soup
1 bay leaf
1/2 tsp of thyme
1/2 lb of cooked bacon (optional I didn't use this)
Add onions, celery and garlic to browned drained beef. Sautee til soft not brown (add garlic last because it does burn easily). Add the rest of the ingredients and cook til the rice is soft. Check for seasoning, you may need to add more juice/and or water and stock depending on how your personal taste and how thick it gets. Serve. Tastes even better the next day but I added a bit of water and stock because the rice soaked up more of the broth over night.
