Golden Beet Soup

With lovely baby beets, this soup lets you soak up the nutrition in this wonderful vegetable.

Prep time: 10 MinCook time: 40 MinTotal time: 50 Min

Ingredients

• 1 Bunch of Baby Beets
• 1/2 Cup of Water
• 1/2 an Orange (I used cara cara)
• Oregano and Rosemary

Instructions

1. Cut the top off of the beets, and rinse them. Place the beets with the skin on in a pot of boiling water.
2. Simmer until they're cooked through, about 30 minutes. Check it at 20 minutes for small beets.
3. Take the beets out with a spoon, and let them cool enough so that it's comfortable for your hands to peel the skin. Slide the skin off.
4. Add the beets to a blender with 1 cup of water (I used the water they simmered in). Add juice of 1 medium size orange. Slice 2 thin cuts of skin (not super thin just not big), and add it to the blender.
5. Blend until smooth. Add more juice of the orange if needed. The flavor will be bright and cheerful.
6. Top the soup off with sour cream, orange slices, rosemary, and oregano. I use rosemary flowers when I'm lucky enough to have some in the garden. The flavor of the flower is delicate with that comforting rosemary taste.

Notes

You can add a little rosemary and oregano to the blender, but I prefer to put a little on top.
