Introduction

Love each of the B, L, and T components of a BLT, but can't eat gluten, and can't stand mayo. Thought of a BLT soup/stew, and figured, why not!! Used turkey bacon and napa cabbage in place of the traditional bacon and lettuce.

As written, this recipe is gluten free, low in fat, and less than 150 calories per [large] serving!

Ingredients

    8 slices turkey bacon, cut into bite sized pieces.
    4 cups shredded green cabbage
    1 can (6 oz.) tomato paste
    1 large can (32 oz.?) diced tomatoes
    2 can (16 oz.) fat free chicken broth

Tips

This was the first time making this, and had no idea what kind of spices to add. When eating I stirred in a bit of garlic salt.

Possible adaptations could include adding in some hardier dark greens (kale, etc.), using cream of tomato soup, serving over rice, and adding croutons for that toasted crunch.


Directions

Put canned tomatoes and tomato paste in first and stir to ensure tomato paste is mixed evenly. Add diced turkey and chicken broth and mix again. Lastly, add fresh cabbage on top and do NOT stir - this helps in not overcooking the cabbage.

I cooked this on LOW for 6 hours. Your individual cooker's time may vary.
