Nutritional values

Beet scores with a high iron content, which is especially important for vegans and vegetarians. The high nitrate content has a positive effect on blood pressure and lowers it naturally.

To make the soup a little creamier, feel free to stir in 1 cup of soy cream at the end, but make sure it doesn't contain added sugar.
