This Polish-inspired Vegan Beet and Buckwheat Soup, made with beets and tomatoes, creates a perfect balance of textures and flavors. Creamy and luscious without any added dairy, this vegan rendition showcases whole buckwheat groats, which pair perfectly with earthy beets. Serve topped with a homemade lemon yogurt sauce and fresh rosemary for a refreshing, tangy kick. You can sub dill for the rosemary if desired.        

Start by cooking the buckwheat groats. In the meantime, sauté the onions until translucent. Then, add the beets and vegetable stock and simmer until the beets are tender. Add the tomatoes and cook for a few minutes more. Taste, salt and pepper, if needed, and purée until smooth. For a lemon yogurt sauce, whisk together a cup of plain dairy-free yogurt and lemon juice.
