Beet Detox Soup
This bright pink Beet Detox Soup is a delicious and healthy soup which is packed full of goodness. The soup gets its pink color from beet roots which are a superfood. Beets are low fat and are packed with minerals, vitamins and antioxidants making them unbeetable in my book (get it?!)
To make this soup, I start by boiling beet roots until they are tender. While the beets are cooking, I fry some onions, garlic, leek, and carrot. Then I add all the cooked ingredients to a food processor with vegetable broth. I blend the mix until it is smooth and I serve it immediately with a coconut milk and mixed seed garnish. Yum!
To make this Beet Detox Soup, you will need the following ingredients:
