Lithuanian Cabbage Soup

4 cups chicken soup stock
1 lg. chopped onion
2 garlic clove, chopped
1 tbsp. sugar
1 bay leaf
pepper, salt to taste

Mix these ingredients and simmer for 1 hour.

Then Add: 1/2 cup chopped carrots,  3 cups chopped cabbage; 1/2 cup sauerkraut; 1 can whole tomatoes. Simmer for 1/2 hour.

Turned out pretty decent, but wish I'd had more time to simmer and draw out flavors more. I garnished with green onion and served with melba toast and cream cheese. Nom.
