Health benefits of Unstuffed Cabbage Soup

Brown rice is a natural source of Inositol, a derivative of Vitamin B (which is often prescribed in the form of supplements for women with PCOS). Inositol can effectively control the symptoms of PCOS by reducing insulin resistance and improving insulin sensitivity.

Ingredients

2 tsp olive oil
1 medium onion, diced
1 lb lean ground turkey
1/2 head cabbage, chopped
1 1/2 cups canned crushed tomatoes
32 oz unsalted chicken broth
2 cups water
1/4 tsp ground black pepper
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper (optional)
1 cup instant brown rice

Instructions

Heat the olive oil in a large soup pot over medium-high heat. Add the onion and sauté 2-3 minutes or until the onions turn clear. Add the ground turkey and cook for 5-7 minutes until the turkey browns. Add the cabbage and cook for an additional 4 minutes.
Add all remaining ingredients, except for the brown rice. Simmer the soup for 7 minutes. Bring the soup to a boil; add the brown rice. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cover the pot for 5 minutes.
