List of Ingredients





3 medium beets, peeled and cut into large chunks
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 large onion, chopped
1 pound carrots, scrubbed and coarsely chopped
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
1 large garlic clove, minced
6 cups water or vegetable stock
1 teaspoon grated orange rind
salt to taste
freshly-ground black pepper to taste
Tofutti sour cream and heart-shaped or plain croutons to
garnish (optional)

Recipe



1. Heat the oil in a large soup pot over medium heat
and add onions, cooking until translucent. Add
carrots, ginger, and garlic and cook for 5 minutes,
stirring frequently. Add beets and water or stock and
bring to a simmer.

2. Simmer the soup, covered, for 50 minutes, then add
orange rind and stir to combine.

3. Working in batches, puree the soup in a blender or
food processor. Add salt and pepper to taste.

4. May be served hot, with a dollop of Tofutti sour cream and
a crouton or two, if you like, or chilled.

Serves 4.
