A Healthy Take on a Classic

Russian Borscht is a classic soup that has been around for centuries. It is traditionally made with beef broth and is served with a dollop of sour cream. This version is a healthier take on the classic, using vegetable broth and omitting the sour cream. The result is a flavorful and hearty soup that is sure to please everyone in the family!

A Flavorful Soup

This soup is full of flavor thanks to the combination of vegetables, herbs, and spices. The tomato paste adds a nice depth of flavor, while the oregano and thyme give it a hint of earthiness. The apple cider vinegar adds a nice tanginess that really brings all the flavors together. The grated beet adds a nice sweetness that really rounds out the flavor of the soup.

A Perfect Winter Meal

This soup is the perfect meal for a cold winter day. It is warm and comforting, and it will fill you up without weighing you down. It is also a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables! Serve it with a side of crusty bread or a simple green salad for a complete meal. Enjoy!
