Cabbage Beef Soup - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/2 head chopped cabbage
4 c. water
1 1/2 lb. ground beef, browned
1 medium onion, chopped
1/2 bell pepper (large), chopped
2 cans red kidney beans
2 cans crushed tomatoes (I use those with Italian seasoning)
2 Tbsp. chili powder
1 tsp. garlic powder
1 Tbsp. parsley
1 tsp. basil
salt and pepper to taste

Preparation

Cook cabbage in water in a large pot.
Brown ground beef.
I always put my onion and bell pepper in with my meat when browning. Pour beef mixture into cabbage.
Add kidney beans, tomatoes and seasonings.
I think it is better if you add a little red hot pepper of some type.
