    Source of Recipe


    Internet

    List of Ingredients




    1 head cabbage, shredded or chopped
    2 large onions, chopped
    16-28 ounces canned tomatoes, chopped
    2 green peppers
    4 stalks celery
    1-2 packages Lipton onion soup mix
    black pepper
    fresh herbs, chopped
    6 carrots, sliced
    1/2 pound green beans, sliced on diagonal
    1/2 cup balsamic vinegar (optional)

    Recipe



    Put all vegetables in a big pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil, stir in the soup mix, and boil gently for 10 minutes. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer until all the vegetables are soft. Stir in the black pepper and chopped herbs (saving some for garnish).

    Eat as much of the soup as you like, as often as you like.
    Here's what else you can eat, and when:

    Day 1: All fruits except bananas.

    Day 2: All vegetables, raw or cooked. This includes baked potato with a LITTLE butter.

    Day 3: Fruits and vegetables, but no potatoes or bananas. Day 4: Bananas and skim milk--eat as many as 8 bananas and drink as many as 8 glasses of skim milk.

    Day 5: Beef, skinless chicken, and/or fish--as much as 20 ounces, total. You can also eat 6 tomatoes. And you must drink 8 glasses of water. Don't forget at least one bowl of soup.

    Day 6: Beef, skinless chicken, or fish and vegetables. Drink 8 glasses of water and eat at least one bowl of soup.

    Day 7: Brown rice, vegetables, and unsweetened fruit juice.
