Introduction

This is a variation on one of those 1970s "fat burning" cabbage soup recipes. The original recipe claims, "this soup will not add calories, the more you eat the more you lose," which is silly, but it is very low-cal and tasty. Based on the ingredients I entered here, it's 91 calories for a two-cup serving. This is a variation on one of those 1970s "fat burning" cabbage soup recipes.
