Ingredients
-Low Sodium Chicken broth -Fresh cabbage (I always use red cabbage)-Any kind of onion (I use red onion)-1 Large baked potato with skin-About half a cup of water (if necessary)-Any seasonings
Directions
1. Pour 1 can of chicken broth into a soup pan and turn the stove to about medium heat.
2. Wash all vegetables very well.
3. Chop potato first (it will take the longest to cook), and toss into broth.
3. Chop onion and cabbage next, toss into broth.
4. If more liquid is needed, add a small amount of water. Make sure that the liquid covers all vegetables.
5. Season according to your taste (I add garlic powder, chili powder, celery powder, and a small amount of crushed chili pepper flakes (optional).
6. Let cook (covered) for roughly half hour (or until potatoes are cooked). Stir occasionally (there isn't much need to watch closely).
6. Let cool and enjoy! (I add a small amount of low sodium soy sauce for extra taste.

*Makes about 3 large bowls.

    Excellent. I only added black pepper. Might want to change the ingredient "baked potato" because judging from the instructions, a raw potato is used. I'm assuming this a food tracker quirk ;-) - 11/23/09

    I had some left over smashed potatoes, but not enough - so I added some garlic/cheddar potato flakes. Very good! - 10/19/08

    Very quick and easy to make! I added dried sweet peppers and tomato/basil seasoning. I also substitued 1/2 C of instant potato flakes for the baked potato because I didn't have any potatoes on hand. - 7/22/08
