Brothy summer soups: Get a bowl of goodness to go

By TASTE, 20 November 2017

It’s warming up out there but don’t put away your soup pot just yet. Abigail Donnelly’s bright nourishing bowls make the most of summer’s harvest to help you boost your veg intake and eat better this season.

"Eating well doesn't mean losing flavour. If you're cutting back on sugar and salt, use fresh herbs, with garlic and spices to enhance the natural taste of your veg." - Abigail Donnelly.

BEETROOT BROTH

Beetroot broth recipe

The earthiness of the beetroot and turnips is complemented by the sweet-sour tang of sauerkraut. Whether you roast beetroot whole, blend it into soup or drink the juice, you’ll be getting a dose of vitamins and minerals. Beetroot belongs to the same family as Swiss chard and spinach and you can also eat the leaves (they’re more bitter than the sweetish root).
