I'm not usually a fan of cabbage soup, but this garbure was delicious! The combination of the cabbage, white beans, and smoked sausage was perfect, and the broth was flavorful and hearty.

I'm a vegetarian, so I omitted the sausage from this recipe. It was still delicious! I added some extra vegetables, such as carrots and celery, to make up for the lack of meat.
