Ingredients

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 pinch salt
pepper, to taste
1/2 lb potato, skin on, cut into 1/4-inch pieces (I like the red skinned ones.)
4 garlic cloves, chopped
1/2 large yellow onion, thinly sliced
5 cups stock, can use broth (your choice)
1 1/2 cups white beans (precooked or canned)
1/2 medium sized cabbage, cored and sliced into 1/4-inch 1/4 inch ribbons
pass a good quality olive oil, for drizzling and
parmesan cheese

Directions

1

Warm the olive oil in a large thick-bottomed pot over medium-high heat. Stir in the salt and potatoes.
2

Cover and cook until they are a bit tender and starting to brown a little bit for about 5 minutes. It's ok to uncover to stir a couple of times.
3

Stir in the garlic and onion and cook for a few minutes until the cabbage softens up a little bit.
4

Add the stock and the beans and bring the pot to simmer.
5

Stir in the cabbage and cook for another couple of minutes, or until the cabbage softens up a bit.
6

Now, adjust the seasonings; getting the seasonings right is important or your soup will taste flat.
7

Taste and see if you need more salt.*.

Note* The amount of salt you will need will be determined by how salty your broth or stock is. Canned broths will sometimes vary between brands and homemade stocks will vary from canned.
