Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 carrots chopped
- 1 large potato cubed
- 1 cup thinly sliced cabbage
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 3 cups chicken or vegetable broth
- 2 15 ounce cans whole beets drained and chopped
- ½ teaspoon salt more to taste
- ½ teaspoon pepper more to taste
- Sour cream for garnish
- Fresh chopped dill for garnish
Instructions
- In a large stock pot over medium high heat, heat your olive oil and toss in your chipped carrots, curbed potatoes, and sliced cabbage. Cook until the vegetables just begin to soften. You’ll know they are ready when your potatoes just begin to start getting transparent. Toss in your garlic and saute everything for about 2-3 minutes.
- Add in your vegetable broth, chopped beets, salt and pepper and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer until your vegetables are tender, about 20 minutes.
- Serve hot with sour cream and fresh dill, add more salt and pepper to taste.
