As much as I love beets, I usually find it difficult to find different ways to cook with them. So naturally, what do I do?
When in doubt…make a soup!
3 large beets, skins removed and sliced (I used a golden beet too)
2 apples, peeled, cored and diced (I used Granny Smith, but I think any apple would be fine)
3 cups vegetable broth
1 cup water
1/2 cup coconut milk
3/4 cup red onion, chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp fresh ginger, minced
3 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp sea salt
1/4 tsp white pepper
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees
- Lay beet slices on baking sheet and drizzle with 1 tbsp oil
- Bake at 400 degrees for 30 minutes
- Then, cook apple, onion, garlic, ginger, salt and pepper in 2 tbsp oil in a saucepan over medium heat for 3 minutes
- Add beets, veggie broth and water and cover
- Cook for 20 minutes on medium heat
- Stir in coconut milk and then our into blender and puree until creamy
