How to Make Baked Cabbage Soup
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add sliced cabbage and sauté until wilted, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
- In a deep, oven-safe pot (at least 6-quart), arrange the toasted wheat bread slices to line the bottom.
- Spread the cooked cabbage mixture evenly over the bread.
- Top with the julienned Italian sausage (or your choice of meat) and then sprinkle generously with shredded Gruyère cheese (or your choice of cheese).
- Pour the chicken or vegetable stock over the layered ingredients.
- Cover the pot and bake in the preheated oven for 50 minutes.
- Remove the lid and bake for an additional 20 minutes, or until the top is beautifully browned and bubbly.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
