Healthy, because
Pumpkin seeds make the skin glow and strengthen connective tissue. Vitamin E contained in them has antioxidant and skin-protective effect. Flax seeds, in addition to a lot of fiber and omega 3 fatty acids, contain abundant B vitamins, vitamin E and folic acid. The antioxidants contained in beet protect our cells from free radical damage.

Outside the beet season, you can also enjoy the soup with pre-cooked and peeled beet from the vacuum pack. Then the 30 minutes of cooking time are omitted.
