Soup season:
Cabbage roll soup
Ingredients
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup chopped onioon
1/2 cup chopped shallots
2 pounds ground beef
1 tsp dried parsley
1/2 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
16 ounces marinara sauce
1/2 head cauliflower or 2 cups riced cauliflower
5 cups beef broth, low sodium
1 large cabbage or 8 cups sliced
Instructions
Heat olive oil and garlic on medium high heat.
Add onions and shallots and cook until softened.
Add ground beef and cook until browned and no longer pink.
Add seasonings to beef and marinara sauce.
Add the riced cauliflower to the beef mixture and stir until coated.
Pour the beef into the crock pot.
Pour beef broth into crock pot and add cabbage.
Stir to combine everything.
Cook on high 3 hours or low 6 hours. If you don't have a crock pot, simply cook ground beef in a dutch oven or heavy soup pot, follow recipe and simmer on low, covered for about an hour until cabbage is tender.
Notes
Net Carbs: 9.8g
You could reduce the carbs more if you have just a cup as a serving instead of suggested serving.
If you choose to use rice instead of cauliflower then I would suggest 1 cup of cooked rice and eliminate the cauliflower.
Enchilada soup
It's cold and rainy so what do I do? Put up a crockpot full of yum - 20 oz chicken breast, 28 oz of red enchilada sauce, one sliced onion, 1 clove garlic, 1 can black beans (drained) and 1 cup of frozen roasted corn. Set the crock pot on high and come back later. will make 6 servings at 219/28.7 and I'll serve over "cauli rice" which will take it to 244/30.7....mmmm comfort food
