Ingredients

  • 7 cups water
  • 1 32 oz. carton vegetable broth or chicken broth
  • 1 8 - 10 oz ham hock

  • In a large soup pot add the water, vegetable broth, ham hock, cabbage and carrots. Cover and bring to a boil. Let boil for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Stir in the remaining ingredients and salt and pepper, to taste. Reduce the heat to a simmer. Let cook for about 40 minutes or until the vegetables are tender, stirring occasionally.
