So, if ANYONE has been reading this blog, they know by now my dietary dilemma. I think I might have come up with a solution! I was thinking of making this cabbage soup, but then adding a twist at the end hehe.
* 6 large green onions (1 bunch)
* 2 green bell peppers
* 1 or 2 cans of tomatoes (14.5 ounce size, diced or whole)
* 1 bunch celery, sliced
* 1 head cabbage, chopped
* 1 package (Lipton) onion soup mix
* 2-3 cubes vegetable bouillon
* 6 cups water
* Season to taste with salt, pepper, parsley, curry, garlic powder, etc.*
* Don't forget a little cayenne!
* 1 Bag of spinach leaves or 1 bunch of kale (de-stemmed) or whatever dark leafy green is on sale or in season.
Preparation:
Simmer or slow cook all until soup is done. *If slow cooking, add seasonings about an hour before done. Eat all the soup you want, whenever you want. (here's my twist) Let cool till it's about 110-116 degrees then throw in a bag of fresh spinach/greens and stir till nicely wilted. Put it all in a blender and drink throughout the day.
What do you think? Could I use this as a juice feast? There's be no pulp waste, I'd still be getting a bunch of raw greens and I don't have to worry about cost because most of this stuff is pretty inexpensive. My goal is to try and stay under $5 a day. I figure a batch of soup would last for 2 days possibly 3.
