I’ve made this recipe so many times, and have sent it to so many friends. It’s so simple yet full of flavor. I love to have soup for lunches while I work, and this is made almost weekly!

In reply to Lisa. I make a cabbage soup that is very close to this recipe. (No potato, and I add lemon juice at the end instead of using vinegar.) I season it with a teaspoon of chili powder and a teaspoon of dried thyme, plus 1/8 tsp crushed red pepper. I think this flavor profile works well with the fire roasted tomatoes and the lemon juice/vinegar, and it's really flavorful! I think the soup also benefits from the addition of a sliced mild sausage like kielbasa (or my local favorite Vermont cheddar.)

I made this as directed except only had 1 can of fire roasted tomatoes.
It makes for a perfectly serviceable meal if served with bread, but it’s not something I would get excited to make (even as a cabbage lover). I think it’s a nice base but ultimately didn’t have enough flavor for me to make again. I can see this fitting the bill if you just need a light soup for a weeknight.

I was thinking about adding corn! Glad to read it went well for you. Might try it next time!

I liked this recipe quite well. I did make a few substitutions that make it very non-veggie. I used bacon renderings instead of olive oil to cook the veggies, and added a few pieces of bacon to the soup. I had some fresh corn, so used that instead of the beans, and it went great. I think even better would be including kielbasa.
