A while back, I was involved in a discussion about weight loss and recipes & someone said something like, “You don’t want to be stuck eating cabbage soup, do you?” I was like, “Oh my gosh, Original Fat Burning Cabbage Soup? I love that stuff!” And so help me, I do! I love this old recipe.
Original Fat Burning Cabbage Soup
A gorgeous dish, it really should have a fancy name…a little wine, lemon and a handful of sun-dried tomatoes spark up gorgeous green beans, chicken and a few potatoes. Fingerling potatoes or Yukons are perfect but a red potato makes a great budget stand in. And everything is napped with that bright sauce. Shhh…don’t tell anyone how simple this dish is and they’ll think you’re a genius.

Tossed with the hot beans, the cheese melts a bit into a creamy sauce and the Pecans add a bit of crunch and interest. Best part: it takes practically no time at all.
