Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 small yellow onion, chopped (about 1 cup)
  • 5 large cloves garlic, thinly sliced (3 tablespoons)
  • 4 cups chopped green cabbage
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • ½ teaspoon ground pepper, plus more for garnish
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 4 cups reduced-sodium vegetable broth or no-chicken broth
  • 1 (15-ounce) can no-salt-added cannellini beans, rinsed
  • ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 large egg
  • 2½ tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill, plus more for garnish

Instructions

  1. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sliced garlic; cook them while stirring occasionally until they are softened and fragrant but not browned, about 4 minutes.
  2. Add 4 cups of chopped cabbage along with 1 teaspoon of oregano and ½ teaspoon of ground pepper. Continue cooking while stirring occasionally until the cabbage starts to soften, approximately 3 minutes.
  3. Pour in the 4 cups of vegetable broth and add the rinsed cannellini beans. Increase the heat to high until it boils. Then reduce the heat to medium, cover, and cook while stirring occasionally until the cabbage is tender, around 8 minutes.
  4. In a medium heatproof bowl, whisk together ¼ cup Parmesan cheese, 1 egg, and 2½ tablespoons lemon juice. While whisking constantly, slowly drizzle about ½ cup of hot soup broth into this mixture until fully incorporated. Repeat this process once more.
  5. Remove the soup from heat. Whisk in the tempered egg mixture followed by stirring in 2 tablespoons of chopped dill and ¼ teaspoon salt. Finally, divide the soup among four bowls and garnish with additional dill if desired. Enjoy your nourishing bowl of gut-friendly goodness!
