You can eat cabbage soup on the keto diet as long as you substitute the high carb vegetables with low carb alternatives. Removing the beans and potatoes from the traditional cabbage soup and replacing them with a lower net carb vegetable like zucchini and yellow squash would make the soup keto-friendly.
