They loved it and both ate two bowls! The youngest ate the most, both love soups and this was a winner! Thanks Christy!

Its so good, and I'm not even a veggie lover. I used broccoli instead of the cabbage, I also added a potato and some seasoning. Now I'm ready to make a chicken gumbo soup. You really got me started.

You amaze me every time I visit your blog. I've been lurking for a while now, and decided I should comment. Never have I thought to flavor soup with Ranch dressing. Together, my kids and I made soup just last night. Next time you can bet we'll add some Ranch. It's great that you're not a 'name brand' girl. Wal Mart is the only place for groceries in my small town. I love value but not at the cost of compromising flavor and a lot of the Great Value items meet my high standards - not to mention my budget! Thank you for sharing your expertise- Wow!

I quit (cough cough) smoking last may and I have packed on some pounds since then. I am a 5'3 small framed person and 110 - 115 is about right for me, right now I am a whopping 143 lbs. I do not feel comfortable in my own skin. I have had success with the CABBAGE SOUP DIET in the past losing 25 lbs (2 times did the 7 day diet in a month) http://www.freelancebyu.com/diet.htm It is SO IRONIC that you posted this the DAY I started back on my quest, tweaking the recipe - adding VENISON (ground - low to no fat) to the mix. WISH ME LUCK and I look forward to reading more of your fab recipes! BTW......... the biscuit/donuts is an OLD FAVE of mine that I have had on my website several times over the years, I was tickled to see it on your site! :) I am doing a survey right now in another window, they are asking for blog/blogger urls that you would like to see featured on a MOM site, I am listing yours! :) XOXOO I do CABBAGE SOUP DIET to detox from time to time and NOW just happens to be that time!

I'm definitely going to cook this up today! I would have never thought to add the ranch dressing mix to soups. Thanks for so much posting this, Christy! You should be a guest on Rachel Ray or Martha Stewart or Paula Deen! Does Paula Deen have guests on her show? I don't get cable.

It was weird. I had just finished off a 32 oz bottle of water when it happened. I was drinking it... a little too late. Thats cool to know about the salt in the crystal light. And anytime you wanna gimme advice.. you just go right ahead. Heh.. It was weird. I had just finished off a 32 oz bottle of water when it happened. I was drinking it… a little too late.

A perfect soup for my tastes...I especially love the okra. I may just have to whip this up sometime this weekend. I'm sure the Ranch makes the seasoning perfect. This looks delicious!
