Ground turkey can be substituted for ground beef.
Leftovers will keep in the refrigerator for 4 to 5 days and can be frozen.
How Spicy Is This Soup?
If you use “Hot” Rotel tomatoes and 1/4 teaspoon of cayenne pepper, it has a moderate amount of heat. For more heat, double the amount of cayenne pepper or add 1/4 teaspoon of crushed red pepper flakes.

Perfect soup. Has it all and can freeze it for those quick yummy nights. Thank you.
I absolutely Love this soup! Perfect amount of spice and tons of flavor!
I make it quite often.
Cabbage is cooked perfectly with these times and temps. Pairs well with spice and tomato.
This soup has the perfect about of cabbage and heat for a colder day. Even hubby liked it and he isn’t big on cabbage.
I followed the recipe as close as I could. I live in Mexico so I do not have access to all the ingredients. I used a can of diced tomatoes, and added a half cup of chopped fresh tomatoes. We do not have Rotelle so I used a cup of canned jalapeños. I used fresh chopped garlic, added into the hamburger for the last 30 seconds before adding it to the slow cooker. I added a half cup of chopped carrots also to add a little more vegetable earthy flavor. After cooking for a few hours I was not satisfied with the amount of liquid in the cooker so I added 2 cups of Clamato juice and a half cup of scotch whiskey. After the allowed cooking time I added the juice from 2 Mexican limes. The flavor was fantastic. Also I did not use cayenne pepper. I would recommend this recipe but with a few additions to suit your flavor interests..
This recipe is so easy and full of flavor! I did add some rice in the crockpot and it is delicious! Would definitely make this again!
When did you add rice?
My husband and I love this soup!
I don’t use a slow cooker I just make it on the stove top. I only simmer about 30 minutes as we like a little more texture to the cabbage. Sometimes I add some spicy sausage to the ground beef as well. So simple! So delicious! Satisfies hubby’s spice cravings too.
My daughter made this and it was so delicious and tasty I decided to make it at home as well! Delicious!
It was very good. I will be making it again.
So easy and so good! Hubby said keep this in the rotation!
I love this recipe! Very easy to make. I added alittle more cayenne but I like very spicy food.
I will definitely be making it again!!!
It was easy and very tasty 😋. Would make again.

So yummy and inexpensive to make. Might add rice next time.
Made this for supper and it was delicious. I also made some rice and we just put the soup on top of the rice. I will definitely be making this again.
Can I cook this just in a pot over the stove vs. a crockpot?
The accompanying video showing how easy it is to make this soup shows 10 – 15 minutes of cooking in the crock pot. This must be for those that want to eat it with raw cabbage and onions…this has to be a miss print as the written recipe says to cook for 6 – 8 hours on low….
Other than that the recipe does look good and I might try it sometime…
The cabbage and onion cook in the broth you add to the crock pot you have to cook the ground beef first and add it to the crock pot first . Then add all liquids and vegetables that wil cook in the liquid. If you try it it’s great!
