Scarlet Vegetable Soup with Apple

 

6 carrots

3 medium sized potatoes

3 beets

5 cups vegetable broth, homemade or canned and or water, I like homemade

2 to 5 cloves garlic, depending on how much you like garlic, I like 5

sea salt to taste

fresh or dried herbs/spices as desired

1 apple

Add vegetable broth/water to soup pot and bring to a boil.

While liquid is heating up, peel and chop the carrots, potatoes, and beets,

and then add them to the soup pot.

 

Finely chop the garlic and add to the soup pot.

Marvel at the beautiful scarlet color.

 

When the soup comes to a boil, lower the heat to medium-low and simmer. The

soup is done when the vegetables are cooked through (soft but not mushy) and

they have all given their flavors to the broth. Actually, it's done when you

say it's done. Taste the soup, paying particular attention to the broth, and

add sea salt and/or herbs and spices as desired.

 

Ladle the soup into bowls. Coarsely chop the apple. Sprinkle a few apple

pieces over each soup bowl and serve.

Serves 4.
