In a large pot, combine the chicken broth, water, tomato sauce, and lemon juice.
Stir well to mix.
Bring to a boil and then add the remainder of the ingredients.
Gently simmer, stirring occasionally, until apples and cabbage are tender, about 30 minutes.
Adjust seasonings and serve.
Notes / Tips / Wine Advice:
This soup tastes good as is, with the apples as a surprising addition. For an even heartier meal, you can also brown a bit of hamburger, drain off the grease, and add it to the soup.
