I'm absolutely in love with the color of this soup! Is it just me, or do beets make the most beautiful dishes?!
This soup is so fun to eat, not only because it's pretty though, because it is deliciously creamy. It's sometimes hard to make a thicker soup with an ingredient like beets. But with a few other key ingredients, this soup becomes uber thick and creamy.
This soup is also customizable. If you want some chunks in your soup, feel free to only blend half of the veggies and leave some veg whole. If you love a smooth soup, blend everything!
Step 1. Coarsely chop the potatoes, beets, leek, and onion. Slice the garlic. No need to finely chop any of these veg, you'll end up pureeing them later.
Step 2. Sauté the veggies in a pot for 10 minutes, adding a splash of milk if they start to stick.
Step 3. Add the remaining milk. Simmer on medium high for 20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
Step 4. Remove from the heat. Reserve 1 cup of chunks, if desired. Bend in a food processor until smooth, then add in the remaining chunks. Top with chopped leeks, if desired. Enjoy!
Thank you God for this soup. Thank you for beets that have a bright color that adds beauty to our lives. Amen.
Yellow beets will create the same delicious flavor as red, but the color of the soup will be a brown color instead of the pink of this soup. If you don't care about color, go ahead and use yellow!
Potatoes are the secret ingredient here. They don't add tons of flavor but when cooked they are soft and create an incredible thick and creamy texture.
A food processor, blender, or immersion blender will all work to blend the veggies. If you have one of the three you are good to go!
You can use any non-dairy milk you have on hand. Make sure it is unsweetened though.
