Find here some questions related to the onion soup diet better known as the cabbage soup diet:

Is it okay to use 1 cooking onion opposed to 6 green onions?

Hi St,
yes you may have cooking onions and all other types of onions too instead of the green onions or even together with them.

Liptons Onion Soup Replacement

(Ireland)

It is impossible to get Liptons Onion Soup in Ireland. What other soups would be suitable? Oh and I am a vegetarian.

Hi Jacqueline,
this is no problem. You may have vegetarian broth available in Ireland instead. Best results you will achieve with low sodium broth.

On the meat days you may use tofu or quorn.

All the best,
Gabriela
