On the occasion of Mother's Day, we want to share a delicious and, most importantly, healthy soup that you can serve your beloved moms on their special day! Beet greens soup — that’s what we’re talking about — is, thanks to the valuable properties of beet greens, a dish rich in B vitamins, folic acid, and iron. A dinner like this works both as a way to ease stress and to fight anemia. Beet greens soup will also protect you against cardiovascular diseases and cancers, and stimulate the work of the intestines and liver. So enjoy it in good health — savoring time spent together with your family at the table!
Notes
Recipe for beet greens soup
Preparation:
Peel, wash, and finely dice the potatoes, then sauté them in olive oil. Wash the young beets together with their leaves thoroughly, then cut off the leaves and chop them finely. Grate the beets. When the potatoes are sautéed, pour in the hot broth and cook for about 10 minutes, until the potatoes are almost tender. After 5 minutes, add the beets to the potatoes; after another 5 minutes, add the beet greens. Cook everything for 3 more minutes. Season with salt and pepper, add lemon juice, and finish with cream, or add it directly to the bowl when serving the soup. Serve with sliced hard-boiled egg and dill or parsley.
...because homemade is better!
