Beet Soup With Potatoes And Beet Greens
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 cup chopped onion
- 1 cup diagonally sliced carrot
- 1/2 cup finely chopped celery
- 1 1/2 cups finely chopped peeled beets (about 3/4 pound)
- 1 1/2 cups finely chopped red potatoes (about 1/2 pound)
- 1 1/2 cups water
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 (10 1/2-ounce) cans beef broth
- 1 (14.5-ounce) can no-salt-added diced tomatoes, undrained
- 4 cups coarsely chopped beet greens (about 1 pound)
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- Heat oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add onion, carrot, and celery; saute 5 minutes or until tender, stirring frequently. Stir in beets and next 6 ingredients (beets through tomatoes). Bring to a boil; reduce heat, and simmer 35 minutes or until vegetables are tender. Stir in beet greens and sugar; cook 5 minutes.
- Add the greens to the soup at the end for a nutritious boost. If you prefer, you can use less than the four cups of beet greens called for in the recipe.
