Meanwhile, in another pot add 6 cups water, and rest of the ingredients. Bring to a boil.
Cut up chicken into bite-size pieces and add to boiling cabbage. (Pork or beef may be substituted. Cut pork or beef into bite-size pieces and pan fry with cooking spray.)

If not sweet enough I add Splenda 1 teaspoon at a time.

    THE NO-SALT AND LITE SALTS ARE HIGH IN POTASSIUM AND DO DAMAGE TO YOUR KIDNEYS! USE REGULAR SALT: JUST USE 1/4 OR 1/2 THE AMOUNT CALLED FOR! IF YOU CAN DO WITHOUT IT TOTALLY, ALL THE BETTER! TRY USING A LITTLE DRIED THYME ALONG WITH FINELY GROUND CELERY SEED IN STEAD OF THE SALT, IT'S GOOD SEASONIG! - 12/23/08

    less sugar; add ginger for an asian concept and more veggies. You could also use low-salt chicken broth for even better flavor. I have made many soups like this and it always turns out good. It is light enough for cool spring nights. - 4/15/10

    Made this but used some left over pork from a pig roast...gave it a great smokey sweetness to it. Also added garlic, onion and celery. Definitely delish! - 10/23/08

    Can't wait to make this, but I'm going to try steeping a few stevia leaves in the broth for sweetness so I can cut down on the sugar--'cause I have a feeling I'm going to like this a LOT but I'm trying to eat less sugar. Thanks! - 12/15/09

    320 calories for cabbage soup is Way to high. I will use brown sugar splenda instead and also broil the chicken to remove fat and increase flavor of chicken. - 4/16/10
