Stuffed Cabbage Soup

You know those days when you get home from work and you wonder what on earth to make for dinner? While rummaging through the fridge and pantry, I had everything to make this Stuffed Cabbage Soup. Stuffed cabbage often has a touch of cinnamon. I actually cut the cinnamon in half. You could also use ground chicken or turkey instead of the ground beef. This soup is really good, my husband LOVED it. It also freezes well. Cabbage has an impressive nutrient, which is rich in vitamin C, fiber, and vitamin K. Some research suggests that it may have health benefits that include supporting digestion and heart health, among others. Eat more cabbage!
