Cabbage soup diet recipe offers a tasty week-long weight loss plan

If you are looking to slim down quickly, perhaps prior to a beach vacation, the cabbage soup diet recipe is your ticket. After just seven days of eating varieties of this delicious soup, you should see results. Since soup contains a lot of water, you fill up faster and eat less, resulting in less calories per day and increased weight loss. Remember that this diet plan is only intended to achieve short term weight loss and should not be followed long term as a weight loss plan.

Following is the basic cabbage soup diet recipe. Feel free to vary amounts of ingredients to suit your tastes:

• 2 green bell peppers
• ½ to 1 head of cabbage
• 1 bunch of large green onions
• 1 or 2 cans of diced tomatoes
• 1 bunch of celery
• 1 package onion soup mix
• 3-6 carrots

You will simply need to chop all of the vegetables and simmer in a pot. Add seasoning of your choice such as black pepper, curry, garlic powder, parsley or other herbs. Optionally, you may add bouillon cubes, balsamic vinegar or vegetable juice.

It is important to keep in mind when using the cabbage soup diet recipe to supplement your daily diet with adequate nutrition. It could be detrimental to your health to eat the soup only throughout the week. Be sure to include fruit, vegetables, some lean beef, skinless chicken or fish for protein in addition to your minimum of one bowl of soup per day.

The guidelines of the basic cabbage diet recipe suggest the following foods to be included with your daily soup regimen:

• Day 1 - any fruit, excluding bananas
• Day 2 - any vegetables, including baked potato
• Day 3 - any fruits and vegetables, excluding potato
• Day 4 - bananas and skim milk
• Day 5 - meat (beef, skinless chicken or fish) and tomatoes
• Day 6 - meat and vegetables
• Day 7 - unsweetened fruit juice, brown rice and vegetables

Be sure to drink plenty of water and avoid carbonated beverages. By following the cabbage soup diet recipe you can eat as much soup as you want and enjoy quick weight loss.
