I find I’m generally a one or two trick pony when it comes to making soup, its either butternut soup or cauliflower and I seldom digress from this well loved plan. This weekend after a trip into town and forage through the local veggie market, I decided to push my soup making skills to try out beetroot.
Having a tub of homemade bone broth in the fridge, I purchased my beetroot and headed home to seize the moment and make some bright pink soup. I have to say, I think I officially have a new favourite soup. Earthy, sweet and creamy this soup not only looks utterly gorgeous but packs a punch of flavour and nutrients. I really hope you enjoy it as much as I do!
