Notes

Cozy Cabbage Soup is best served warm. You can enjoy it on its own or pair it with some crusty bread or a simple salad. Adding a sprinkle of fresh herbs on top can enhance the flavor even more. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. You can also freeze it in portions.
