This is another childhood meal.

My Mom used to make a huge pot.

One big head of cabbage, sliced very thin

2 cans of white beans with the liquid

6 big cloves of chopped garlic

4 tablespoons olive oil

1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper

2 big bouillon cubes, chicken or vegetable

3 cups water

Heat the oil and add the garlic

Cook till it is soft

Add the beans with the liquid

Add the cabbage, bouillon, red pepper and water

Bring to a boil and then simmer till the cabbage is soft

Serve with the crusty bread

My Mom, ever so often, would serve this with Italian sausage. That was a real treat.

Good vegetable meal or not , it is very good and worth the fifteen minutes to make.
