Angie's Cabbage Soup

So, hard to believe but we're coming right up on the end of January. How are your Resolutions going? Mine...especially the one about eating dinner before 10:00 and getting to bed before midnight, which I've upheld once in 25 days...not so well. I have done a fairly decent job of bringing my lunch two days a week though and this large pot of cabbage soup has a lot to do with that. This is one of my Mom's go-to soup recipes. It's super easy to make, surprisingly somewhat healthy and helps my cubicle feel a little bit like home...for the 15 minutes it takes me to eat at least. Then it goes back to more like .... well, another word that starts with 'h'. Enjoy!

Ingredients:
1 1/2 pounds ground turkey
1 onion
1 head cabbage, finely chopped
1 large can V8 juice
2 cans red beans
2 cans stewed tomatoes
2 cans Rotel tomatoes
2 pkgs. dry Good Seasons Italian dressing mix

Directions:
- Brown ground turkey and chopped onion
- Add all remaining ingredients and simmer for 1-1.5 hours

Soup Cocktails


Saturday night we stopped in the Bryant Park Hotel's Cellar Bar to try their new lobster bisque, herb tomato and carrot ginger 'Soup Cocktails,' which unfortunately are only served Monday - Friday. I'm not sure when I'll be able to make it back during the week so I have high hopes of trying some of these traditional recipes and adding 1/2 cup or more of the specified liquors. Will let you know how it goes!

{Herb tomato w/ Absolut Pepper vodka, a touch of sea salt, dried basil & black pepper}

{Carrot Ginger w/ Domaine de Canton & Frangelico} 
{Lobster bisque w/ Harvey's Bristol Creme, seasonal spices & cayenne pepper}
