Chinese Cabbage Soup

Hi there!

As I was typing this entry, I was watching a program of very big people who can't lose weight, as they "cheat" themselves by eating secretly. They resort to surgery to fix the problem.

I must say, I'm not very keen on the idea, as I believe that a change in lifestyle and food always follows weight loss. The problem, for many, is the lack of motivation. Besides, losing weight that way does not ensure an ongoing healthy body, as one may lack fibre, and continue eating the same sort of fat saturated meals that made them big in the first place.

Anyway... I digress... Going back to the Chinese cabbage soup... yes... I found this recipe in Jim's Vegetarian Chinese Cookbook.

I must say, though, that I'm disappointed with Jim including MSG in a healthy cookbook, but I guess it is up to you and me not to include it in recipes. That's why I've included this modified recipe in my site.

Despite my disappointment, I still reckon the book is good and full of delicious recipes. If you happen to buy it, though, just use common sense and do not include MSG or excessive fat.
