Cabbage Soup Diet Recipe Plan
I remember a version of this recipe from when I was a kid. Cabbage soup for weight loss. It was a recipe that my mom cooked up and my dad ate off of for days.
So, of course when I decided to try to eat some low-calorie meals, like banana smoothies and my egg white scramble (which is my new favorite breakfast) in an attempt to get back into my jeans from last year--I thought of 7 day cabbage diet soup.
Now of course (in my humble opinion), if you're going to go all out on the Cabbage Soup Diet, you might want to shake things up a bit and try some of the other real foods soups. I was thrilled to see that someone has come up with a 28-Day Soup Diet Cookbook that does just that! Don't get me wrong--cabbage soup is the bomb dot com, but I don't want to eat anything for 28 days straight!
Make Ahead Meals for Freezer
Now, to be real, I only at this for a few days, and didn't follow the classic 7 day cabbage diet, where you basically only eat this soup. But, I also made enough of this recipe to freeze some, because having some low-calorie lunches on hand is at the top of my list.
Between this soup and all the healthy smoothies I've been whipping up in my Ninja Master Prep smoothie maker blender, I'm definitely on the road to healthy living.

I want to try this, but not as drastic. Can I just eat the soup as one of my meals of the day? I have some health issues and don't want to go to fast.
