My sister-in-law made borscht one cold Canadian evening for dinner. It was delightful.  If you are in a hurry, use a can of shoestring beets instead of starting from scratch.

Place 8 cups of water in large kettle and bring to a boil

Ingredients:

  • 3 raw beets with tops, pealed and sliced thinly
  • 1 medium potato, pealed and diced
  • 1 medium carrot, pealed and diced
  • 1 medium onion, pealed and diced
  • 1 cup frozen petite green peas
  • 1 can black beans, drained
  • 2 Tbsp cup brown rice
  • 1 Tbsp cup tiny soup pasta
  • 4 Tbsp dried dill weed (or more)
  • ¼ tsp sea salt
  • ¼ tsp lemon pepper

Chop or slice vegetables.

Add all ingredients to the kettle and bring to a boil

Simmer until soft, stirring occasionally. If you want the soup a bit thicker, add one can of condensed tomato soup.

Mix and heat thoroughly. Pour into bowls.

Top with a dollop of light sour cream.

Serve with whole wheat or Russian bread.
