*Satisfying and keto friendly.
The ingredients used for this soup are low in carbs with a healthy balance of fat and protein. It’s a really filling, comforting meal, that doesn’t feel restrictive. It’s also insanely delicious. Healthy without sacrificing flavor, for the win!
*Electrolytes.
The stuff plants crave! Electrolytes are actually a pretty big deal when you’re on a ketogenic diet. They can make or break your entire day. Low electrolytes can be the culprit for fatigue, headaches, muscle spasms, and nausea. If you are experiencing the dreaded “keto flu”, have a migraine that just won’t let up or getting leg cramps, throw an extra bouillon cube (or two!) in the pot. Sodium is your friend on keto and this cabbage soup recipe just might turn your day around.
