Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • 1 medium yellow onion, chopped

  • 3 cloves garlic, minced

  • 6 cups chopped green cabbage

  • 2 medium carrots, roughly chopped

  • 2 large celery stalks, chopped

  • 1 (28-ounce) can no-salt-added crushed tomatoes

  • 2 (15-ounce) cans no-salt-added great northern beans, rinsed

  • 8 cups low-sodium vegetable broth

  • ¾ teaspoon crushed red pepper

  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • ¼ teaspoon ground pepper

  • ¼ cup chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley, plus torn leaves for garnish

Directions

  1. Heat oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add onion; cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in garlic; cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add cabbage, carrots and celery; cook, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage starts to wilt, about 8 minutes.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.

* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
