Ingredients
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 onion , diced
  • 6-7 carrots , peeled and cut into chunks
  • 3 beets , peeled and cut into chunks
  • 1/2 cup vegetable stock
  • 2 large ginger cloves , diced
  • 1 1 inch knob ginger , grated with microplane
  • 5.5 cups low sodium vegetable stock
  • 1 tsp orange zest

Instructions
  1. In a large soup pot, add oil and heat over medium heat. Add onion and cook for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  2. Add beets and carrots and 1/2 cup of veggie stock. Stir and cover. Turn heat to low-medium and cook for 10 minutes, covered.

  3. Add remaining ingredients. Simmer for 45-50 minutes, or until vegetables are tender.

  4. Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Blend with an immersion blender or with a high speed blender. SOUP MUST NOT BE HOT if you are using a regular blender. The pressure will make the lid fly off, so use caution..

Recipe Notes
  • Substitute chicken broth for vegetable broth if desired. The end result will not be vegetarian.
  • Add quinoa when serving if desired.
  • Or, add a splash of full fat coconut milk to each bowl prior to serving.
