Easy Potato & Cabbage Soup

I know I am not alone when I say, it has been a long March. With everything going on in the world and confining myself (and family) to the house, most things have been anything but normal. Even with all the change, we still take time to do weekly meal prepping and family dinners.  

Easy Potato & Cabbage Soup

Call me crazy, but cabbage is one of my favorite foods. Raw, sauteed, fried, by itself or as part of a recipe; it doesn’t matter. I have managed to keep cabbage in the meal rotation, but I cross my fingers each time I add it to the grocery delivery.

One of my favorites to make is Potato & Cabbage Soup. It is easy to make and we always have plenty of leftovers for meal-prep lunches.

    Way too much pepper. I doubled this recipe and use 1 tablespoon of pepper as the recipe indicates for a single batch and it was way too much pepper even in a doubled batch. It took me a few hours to fuss with recipe and add other ingredients to reduce the overwhelming overload of black pepper. Did u mean a teaspoon of pepper instead?
