Notes
- You may chop all vegetables and store them in air-tight containers in fridge and use them just before cooking the cabbage detox soup for weight loss.
- If you are pressed for time, then you may use frozen veggies too. But I recommend using fresh vegetables to reap maximum health benefits.
- You may store the left-over soup in air-tight containers in the fridge for up to 5 days, re-heat in a microwave or stove top and enjoy the comforting soup.
