Ingredients

Scale

Vegetables

1 cup diced onion (about 1 small onion)
1 cup diced carrots (about 2 medium carrots)
1 cup diced celery (about 2 ribs)
1 medium head of cabbage, cored and chopped
3 teaspoons minced garlic (about 3 cloves)

Spices and Seasoning

1 teaspoon ginger paste or grated ginger
½ teaspoon turmeric
Salt and pepper to taste

Liquids and Oils

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 (14.5-ounce) can diced tomatoes
6 cups vegetable broth

Instructions

Heat the oil and sauté vegetables: In a large pot over medium-high heat, warm 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Add 1 cup diced onion, 1 cup diced carrots, and 1 cup diced celery. Cook the vegetables, stirring occasionally, until they become slightly tender, about 5 minutes.
Add cabbage and spices: To the pot, add the chopped medium head of cabbage, 3 teaspoons minced garlic, 1 teaspoon ginger paste, ½ teaspoon turmeric, and salt and pepper to taste. Continue cooking while stirring frequently until the cabbage wilts down and softens.
Add tomatoes and broth and simmer: Pour in the 14.5-ounce can of diced tomatoes along with 6 cups of vegetable broth. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer uncovered for 15 to 20 minutes, or until all vegetables are tender and flavors meld together.
Serve: Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed. Serve the soup hot and enjoy as a detoxifying, nutritious meal.

Notes

For a spicier version, add a pinch of red pepper flakes while cooking the spices.
This soup stores well in the refrigerator for up to 4 days and freezes beautifully for up to 3 months.
Feel free to add other vegetables like green beans or zucchini for variation.
Use low-sodium vegetable broth to control the salt level.
