Put the cabbage in: Mix in the chopped cabbage and cook for around 3 minutes until it starts to soften a bit.
Add broth and spices: Pour the vegetable broth into the pot, then add the chopped tomatoes, thyme, basil, and bay leaf. Heat the soup until it boils, then lower the heat and let it cook gently for 20-25 minutes, or until the vegetables are soft.
You can also add vegetables if you want. If you choose to add zucchini or green beans, put them in the soup during the final 10 minutes of cooking. This will make sure they are soft but not cooked for too long.
Add salt and pepper to the soup to taste. To make the taste fresher, add the lemon juice right before you serve it.
Serve the cabbage soup in bowls and add fresh parsley on top. Eat with crunchy bread or by itself for a nutritious and fulfilling meal.
