Mussel soup with cabbage
This is what we had for both lunch and dinner today: mussel soup with cabbage. Easy, quick, low fat, low carb and high protein and rather filling.
Mussel soup for 4:
- 1 small white cabbage
- 2 cloves of garlic
- 1 ½ liters of water
- 2 tbsp tomato purée
- 1 tin of mussels
- 1 tin of fishballs in stock (like meatballs, but fish ;))
- 1 stock cube (vegetable, high quality)
- dried basil
I also had a little bit of left over pasta in it, but that is of course optional.
Chop up the cabbage and garlic and let it boil in the water with all the seasoning for about 5 minutes. Add mussels and fishballs and boil for another 3-5 minutes. Serve with a slice of whole grain, non sweetened bread and cheese. The fish balls can easily be replaced by prawns, salmon, cod, more mussels, you name it. This is very easy to make how you want it :-)
