This is a soup that'll warm you up and fill you up. A single 218 calorie serving packs 17 grams of protein and 5 grams of fiber. You can increase the cayenne pepper if you want a little more kick or stir in some hot sauce. We enjoyed it with a side of toasted whole wheat bread to soak up every last bite.
1. Heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat. Once it's hot, lightly coat with buttery cooking spray.
2. Add the frozen vegetarian beef crumbles and cook, stirring occasionally until lightly browned, about 3-5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
3. Heat a large non-stick pot over medium heat. Once it's hot, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
4. Stir in the garlic, onion, carrots, bell pepper and chopped cabbage. Cook, stirring occasionally for five minutes until the cabbage starts to soften.
5. Stir in the spices, thyme, turmeric, cayenne pepper, No Salt and black pepper.
6. Stir in the vegetable broth, tomatoes and quinoa. Bring to a boil, add bay leaf, then reduce heat and simmer for 35-40 minutes.
7. Once the cabbage is tender, discard the bay leaf and stir in the sugar free honey.
8. Divide into 10 servings of about 1 1/3 cups each.
Yield: 10 Servings of About 1 1/3 Cup Each
You can freeze individual portions for easy re-heating later.
Microwave on high for approximately 2.5-3 minutes. Keep the container open a little to allow steam to escape.
