Ingredients

  • 4 russet potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • Salt
  • 3 cups thinly sliced green cabbage
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped
  • 1 cup Organic Chicken Broth, recipe follows
  • Ground pepper

Directions

Begin by boiling the potatoes in salted water (1/4 tablespoon) until fork tender. Drain in a colander.

Saute the sliced cabbage in the olive oil on medium heat with the thyme. Cover and cook until soft, stirring occasionally.

In a small saucepan, warm the broth. Return the cooked potatoes to the pot they were boiled in and mash. When the cabbage is cooked, fold into the potatoes. Add the Organic Chicken Broth, 1/2 cup at a time, using only what's needed to make them creamy. Add salt and pepper to taste.

Organic Chicken Broth:

  • 1 organic chicken carcass/leftover chicken bits, skin removed
  • Carrots, roughly chopped
  • Celery, roughly chopped
  • Leeks, washed and chopped
  • Onion, chopped
  • 10 peppercorns
  • 3 large bay leaves
  • Any leftover fresh herbs such as thyme, rosemary, oregano, parsley

Put all the ingredients into a large soup pot and fill the entire pot with cold water, covering the chicken and vegetables as much as possible. Stir. Bring to a boil, and then reduce to a simmer. Cook uncovered for a couple of hours to extract the vegetable flavors. Strain over another soup pot or large bowl, separating the scraps from the broth. Divide among containers and freeze.

    The first time I made this I did it exactly as the recipe calls for and in was excellent. the second time I decided to fry up some bacon then saute the cabbage in the bacon fat and added the bacon to the dish and it gave it that little extra. excellent side
