NOTES
Don't skip the following ingredients: Tomato paste, tomatoes, garlic, lemon and parsley. These take a simple vegetarian cabbage soup recipe to a whole new level. It never tastes bland like a regular detox soup.
Use veg broth if you want even more flavor. But we really don't think it is needed in this recipe.
If you are a fan of tangy flavor in soups, you can add an extra splash of lemon juice over the bowl when eating.
To make a more filling soup, you can add in some legumes like cooked chickpeas or white beans.
