Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Beet tops (greens and stems)
- 1 medium Beetroot
- 1 medium Cucumber
- 1 large Avocado
- 1 clove Garlic
- 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
- 2 cups Filtered water
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Fresh dill (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
1. Wash the beet tops thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt or grit. Chop them roughly and set aside.
2. Peel the beetroot and chop it into small cubes for easier blending.
3. Peel the cucumber (optional, if you prefer a smoother texture) and slice it into chunks.
4. Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh out into a blender or food processor.
5. Add the chopped beet tops, beetroot cubes, cucumber chunks, garlic clove, lemon juice, and olive oil to the blender.
6. Pour in the filtered water and season with salt and black pepper.
7. Blend everything on high speed until the mixture is smooth and creamy. If the soup is too thick, add more water, a little at a time, to achieve your desired consistency.
8. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed.
9. Serve chilled or at room temperature in bowls. Garnish with fresh dill if desired.
