AIP Friendly Rosemary-Garlic Cabbage Soup
This deeply nourishing soup is exactly the kind of bowl you want when your body needs a reset — fragrant with rosemary and garlic, rich from bone broth, and packed with tender sweet potato, cabbage, carrots, and celery. Every ingredient earns its place, and nothing here conflicts with the strict elimination framework that makes the autoimmune protocol so challenging to cook for. No nightshades, no grains, no eggs or dairy — just clean, whole-food ingredients that let you eat a genuinely satisfying meal without second-guessing the label on every package. The turmeric and ginger add a subtle warmth and golden hue that make the broth feel almost medicinal, while the splash of apple cider vinegar at the end brightens everything up beautifully. It comes together in one pot and serves four, so it's practical for a weeknight dinner or easy to portion out for lunches throughout the week. Finish each bowl with a handful of fresh parsley if you have it — it adds a pop of color and a little herby freshness that takes the whole thing over the top.
