Spring Beetroot Soup
Spring has arrived! Ancient Chinese Medicine teachings say that it is time to leave the heavy slow cooked foods behind that have kept us warm in winter, and move to fresher lighter meals that cleanse - spring greens, lemons, watercress and sauerkraut are on the menu!
Most importantly, beetroot is a powerful superfood for spring time. It nourishes and cleanses our bodies to give us more energy after the long hibernation of winter. Follow along with me as I make my favourite spring beetroot soup…
