Prep time: 45 minutes
Cook time: Not specified
Servings: 4

Ingredients 

 

  • 1 lb Lean Ground Pork

  • 1 tbsp Coconut Oil

  • 1 Yellow Onion (chopped)

  • 2 Garlic (clove, minced)

  • 1/2 tsp Ground Ginger

  • 1 Carrot (large, cut into matchsticks)

  • 3 cups Green Cabbage (sliced thin)

  • 6 cups Chicken Broth

  • 1 tbsp Coconut Aminos

  • 2 stalks Green Onion (chopped, plus more for garnish)

 

Instructions

 

  1. Heat a large pot over medium heat. Add the pork, breaking it up as it cooks. Once it is thoroughly cooked, transfer it to a plate and set aside, draining any excess drippings from the pan.

  2. Add coconut oil to the same pot, followed by the onions. Cook for about five minutes or until the onions begin to soften. Stir in the garlic and ginger, cooking for another minute.

  3. Return the browned pork to the pot and add the carrots and cabbage, stirring to combine. Pour in the chicken broth, bringing the soup to a gentle boil. Continue to cook for about 15 to 20 minutes or until the carrots and cabbage are tender.

  4. Stir in the coconut aminos and green onion. Season the soup with additional salt if needed. Serve the pork and cabbage soup in individual bowls, garnishing with extra green onion, if desired. Enjoy.
