Helen's Cabbage Soup

Recipe By:
Serving Size: 8

Main Ingredient:
Categories: Family

-= Ingredients =-
-MM BY HELEN PEAGRAM-
1/2 medium Cabbage
5 Onions ; sliced
1/2 pound Margarine
6 Potatoes ; diced
28 ounces Tomatoes
1 Water *

-= Instructions =-
NOTE: I try and cut down on the amount of marg * 3 times the normal
amount used to cook potatoes. I just cover them and add water if
necessary. In a large pot, fry onion and cabbage in marg slowly til
tender and brown. About 25 minutes. Boil potatoes til cooked. Add
tomatoes and fried onion and cabbage. Season to taste. Simmer 30 minutes.
Sausage can be browned with the vegetables and added as desired. From:
