    This soup is a true vegetable lover’s feast: a little bit of everything from the produce aisle, plus fresh ginger, turmeric, and other spices for even more flavor.

    The cabbage and the tomatoes get to simmer for long enough to release all of their flavors, and the kale comes in just at the end, so it doesn’t get wilted and limp.

    Basic Vegetable Soup

    Nutritionally, this soup would be a great choice for an anti-inflammatory eating plan because it’s so full of brassica vegetables (kale, cabbage, and broccoli). Brassicas are rich in all kinds of important nutrients and antioxidants for reducing inflammation.

    This soup is vegan as written and almost AIP-friendly (just take out the tomatoes). On the other hand, it’s not a recipe to try on a low-FODMAP diet; all the brassicas do contain a lot of FODMAP fibers.

    For a full meal, add some pre-cooked chicken or other protein to the soup when you add the kale. Or serve the soup as a side for a nice brisket or maybe a pork roast; the winter vegetables play very nicely with all things hearty and savory.
