This traditional recipe formulated by Dr. Henry G Bieler, is great for increasing alkalinity, promoting detoxification, and supplying a great amount of minerals and vitamins in an easily accessible form. Still includes the fibre of the vegetables, so also is very filling. Also great during times of illness, diarrhea, or exercise to replace electrolytes.
This may sound like comfort food on a cold night, but this one can be great all year round. Add in any seasonal veggies that need to be used up from your fridge. So many ingredients in this recipe are health-promoting and cancer-preventing, that this was the first recipe I made for my friend Alyson on my visit to take her to radiation.

This recipe has become a staple in our household - especially in the colder months when beets are abundant. If your beets don’t come with their greens, substitute a bunch of kale, swiss chard, or spinach.
I made a big batch of this soup when it first started to get cold out here. Very comforting and warming from the inside….
I made this for the Sept ‘07 potluck with all the great vegetables from my food share from the Owen Sound market. Simple, no skill required! I put the leftovers in a pot, added a bit of water, and pureed with a handblender for instant soup. Also a quite tasty meal!
