Gluten Free Cabbage Roll Soup

Gluten-Free cabbage roll soup reminds me of growing up in Canada.  My family always had cabbage rolls at every holiday! 

​

DID YOU KNOW I GREW UP IN CANADA?

I Grew up in Canada with a Polish Great Grandma! She loved to cook has influenced a lot of my comfort foods.  Pierogies and Cabbage rolls were a part of ever holiday dinner.  When I made this soup it reminded me of the pierogi eating contests we had as a kid, sitting at a big table with my family.  

I am working on perfecting my gluten free pierogi dough, so hopefully in the near future I will have a recipe for that.  
My Grandma is from Icelandic decent so she made delicious foods from there.  I am planning on making a gluten free Vinatarta for Christmas this year.  Sadly, not many of my family members like prunes but I one of my friends does so I will share the cake with her.

MEMORIES:

It has been 10 years ago today that my Mom passed away. I was wanting some comfort food but didn’t want to blow the clean eating trend I have going.  My Mom was as great cook.  She was an inspiration in the kitchen and many other areas of my life.  I miss her and wish I would have gotten more time to spend with her.

I am trying to eat Paleo/Keto to get ready for the holidays so I am not sad that my pants don’t fit. LOL.  I recently had to go off of my thyroid medicine after finding out that it had gluten in it.  I had been taking it a long time.  So, I have been dealing with the sluggish everything so decided to make food my medicine and cut out all food that was not helping my thyroid. 

GLUTEN FREE CABBAGE ROLL SOUP:

So, I decided to make a cabbage roll soup using cauliflower rice instead of white rice to save the carb count.   Everyone in my family loved it!  It will definitely be a new staple in the recipe rotation for the winter.  I used my multi cooker to make it one pan and easy.  You can cook the meat on the stove if you do not have a multi cooker. It would also work perfectly in an Instant Pot or Pressure Cooker! 

I hope this soup brings you warmth and is comforting.  I am enjoying eating it remembering all of the fun memories of holidays or times in the kitchen with my Mom as well as my Grandmas.
