PROCESS:

Cabbage Soup
In an Instant Pot sauté olive oil, yellow onion, and garlic. You can also use a Slow Cooker or cook stovetop for 6-7 hours. Add vegetable stock, celery, carrots, diced tomatoes, dried thyme, and JF Spicy Salt. Cut cabbage into ribbons, about 1.5" wide, and stir them into the broth. Set the Instant Pot to ‘pressure cook’ for 10 minutes on high. Add additional seasoning to taste.

Ground Beef
In a large pan over medium heat sauté olive oil, brown onion, and garlic. Add ground beef, dried thyme, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and JF Spicy Salt. Let the meat cook down and carefully drain the fat. Leave it over the heat until brown and slightly crisp. Serve the soup warm, topped with ground beef, crumbled vegan feta, parsley, and JF Spicy Salt.
