HCG Chicken And Cabbage Soup

The HCG meal plans are limited in the choice of main ingredients as the HCG diet plan is very rigid about the foods that are permitted & those that are not. The approved list has only those foods that help the HCG hormone in weight loss. Portions are strict & no deviations are allowed. This rigid diet is still popular as the weight loss is rapid & is long term.

In spite of this diet protocol being mapped out in the 1950’s there is not much that has changed in the original HCG Diet Plan. Following the HCG diet properly helps the dieter to lose between 1-3 lbs daily. Making a conscious change in eating habits will help to keep this weight loss permanent. Now for e.g. the HCG chicken & Cabbage soup is a good way to intake the required no of calories. Chicken is a source of protein & cabbage prevents water retention.

Expert Tips To Prepare HCG Chicken & Cabbage Soup

This is a phase 2 recipe & is used in the very Low Calorie Diet. When eaten with a melba toast or a breadstick it can be used as a meal. Here is a simple method of making this soup. Always check that the cabbage is fresh with no wilting leaves. Wash it thoroughly under running water to wash any dirt off. Buy cabbages from organic farms as much as possible.

  • 100 gms chicken
  • 2 cups of chopped cabbage
  • 2 cups of HCG approved chicken broth
  • 2 cloves of minced garlic
  • 1 tbsp chopped onion
  • Use seasonings of choice like paprika, salt & pepper.

Heat the broth with the chicken & spices. When the chicken is cooked let it simmer for a while then add the cabbage. Cook till cabbage is tender. As the cabbage will lose some of its water & wilt there is no need to add any more water to this soup.
