I grew up eating Shoney's hamburger soup with cabbage in Kansas City with my parents. They had an all-you-can-eat soup and salad bar, and it was the highlight of my week. Even as a kid, I've always loved soup. Then we moved out of state. Even though it has been nearly 40 years since I last had it, I never forgot about their cabbage soup with hamburger. I decided to recreate it based on my memory, and here is what I came up with.
