Classic Borscht Recipe (Beet Soup)

I combined this recipe with the one below. I omitted tomato/ketchup and onion for dietary restrictions. The rest of the seasoning was plenty flavorful and made a great broth. Did 1/2 head of green cabbage rather than beans.

I didn't add the vinegar or beans and it was still tasty. I gave it a few spins of the hand blender too.

Used golden beets instead and added venison. Super tasty with a dollop of sour cream and some rye bread. Omited beans.

Very tasty!

I used 3T lemon juice instead of vinegar - probably a mistake, family said it was "too sour". Very good all in all though, especially the next day!

Made a serving of ten and added three radishes, one jalapeno, half an eggplant, a can of tomatoes and a pound of ground venison. It is definitely a house favorite, now!

Used sweet potatoes

Omit canneli beans
