Irena's Peasant Cabbage Soup

½ of large onion diced

2 stalks of celery, diced

4 cloves garlic smashed and diced

2 large baking potatoes, peeled (some like to leave the peel on), quartered lengthwise and sliced into ¼ inch slices. If you do not eat potatoes, just leave them out….still delicious

1 clean tomato from the garden - cut up

1 bay leaf

Around 3 to 4 cups Fresh cabbage - shredded - depends on size of your cabbage

2 to 3 cups of drained and rinsed sauerkraut. I use my own that I make, but I know you can purchase it anywhere in jars. If you want the soup more or less ‘sour’ you would adjust the sauerkraut accordingly.

Ham or garlic sausage, or a smokie, or leftover cooked pork/chicken cut in small pieces….or no meat if you are a vegetarian. Still tastes good. Sometimes mom diced bacon, fried it and put it in. Like I said, they used what they had and wasted little.

Carrots diced - as many as you like.
