Additional

Believe it or not, corned beef and cabbage aren’t as traditionally American as you might think! While these ingredients together are often associated with Irish-American St. Patrick’s Day celebrations, this version turns them into a comforting soup perfect for any cold winter day. For a vegeterian spin, replace beef with canned chickpeas, and chicken broth with vegetable broth.
