This Recipe came about as I have a Love for Cabbage Rolls. A friend had Visited Canada where a Small Downtown Café Serves a Cabbage Roll soup. I decided, What a great Idea for a Soup. Mine goes like this. This is a very thick soup. Feel Free to add enough water to your Desired Soup Consistency. Bet you go back for 2nds. Makes a BIG BATCH. It's EASIER than it Looks. These are My Personal Pictures. Hope You will give this a Try on these COLD winters Days.

How To Make cabbage roll soup by freda

  • 4
    Immediately add rice and cabbage. (REDUCE HEAT) Turn on low simmer and allow soup to simmer for an hour for the flavors to combine. (It's even better if this simmers for several hours.) Remove the Bay Leaf Before Serving. Watch your HEAT, . . . (Stir Often as if this is too High a Heat it will Burn)
