Cabbage Soup (and diet)
Recipe: |
|
The cabbage soup can be eaten any time you
get hungry, and you can eat as much as you like, oh joy, you can have all
the cabbage soup you want! You can have it as often as you want. Just say
that a few times and see if it sounds good to you, because the more I say it
the hungrier I get.
Ingredients:
- 6 Large Green Onions
- 2 Green Peppers
- 1-2 Cans Diced Tomatoes
- 1 Bunch Celery
- 1 Package Lipton Onion Soup Mix
- 1-2 Cubes of Bullion (if desired)
- 1 head cabbage
Cut vegetables into small pieces and cover with water,
you can use V-8 juice also. Boil fast for 10 minutes. Reduce to simmer and
continue cooking until vegetables are tender. Season to taste with salt,
pepper, parsley, or whatever spice you want to add. |
Diet Plan: |
Day One:
Fruit: Eat all of the fruit you want, but you
can't have Bananas!! Eat only your soup and the fruit for the first day. You
can drink, unsweetened teas, cranberry juice and water. |
Day Two:
Vegetables: Eat all the fresh, raw or cooked
vegetables you want. Try to eat leafy green vegetables, and avoid dry beans,
peas, and corn. Eat as much as you want, all the veggies you can handle and
all the cabbage soup you want. At dinner you can have a baked potato with
butter. You can't have any fruit on this day, so just stick to the
vegetables. |
Day Three:
Mix Days One and Two: Eat all the soup, fruits and
vegetables you want, but you can't have a baked potato. |
Day Four:
Bananas and Skim Milk: Eat as many as eight
bananas and drink as many glasses of skim milk as you would like on this
day, along with your soup. This day is supposed to lessen your desire for
sweets. |
Day Five:
Beef And Tomatoes: Ten to twenty ounces of beef
and up to six fresh tomatoes. Drink at least 6 to 8 glasses of water this
day to wash the uric acid from your body. Eat your soup at least once this
day. You may eat broiled or baked chicken instead of beef (but absolutely no
skin-on chicken). If you prefer, you can substitute broiled fish for the
beef on one of the beef days (but not both). |
Day Six:
Beef and Vegetables: Eat to your heart's content
of beef and vegetables this day. You can even have 2 or 3 steaks if you
like, with leafy green vegetables and no baked potato. Eat your soup at
least once. |
Day Seven:
Brown rice, unsweetened fruit juices and vegetables:
Eat as much as you can of this. Be sure to eat your soup at least once this
day.
Well, that's the diet, so try it if you want, and
hopefully it will be beneficial to you. Remember, ask your doctor before
starting any of these diets. |
