Dinner / Summer / Organic / Vegan / Kosher / Parve / Sugar Free
This soup could be served warm or cold on a hot summer day. It is delicious either way. This is a modified version of Russian cold Borscht. I use baby kale instead of beet’s leaves. Organic beets are so sweet; soup does not require any additional sugar. It is a nice option for an occasional menu. It is EASY to make. You can keep it refrigerated for several days. Freshly cut greens add fresh vibrant energy to every serving. A slice of boiled egg could be a nice protein addition to the soup if desired.
