Hearty Beet & Tomato Soup

Another quick and easy recipe, with super easy clean up. This soup is really rich with a deep spicy earthy taste. You could play with the ingredients and herbs/spices to suit your individual taste, but I really enjoyed it just as is.

1 small/medium beet

2 cups sundried tomatoes soaked in about 2 cups of water for 20 minutes

¼ small red cabbage

1 large carrot

2 large double handfuls of baby
spinach

1 peeled lemon

1 hot pepper

Chunk of fresh ginger root

1 tablespoon chia seed

Cut ingredients into chunks and add to blender, including soak water for tomatoes. Blend for about 20 seconds in your Blendtec or Vita-mix blender.

Other blenders may take a little longer. You could probably also do this one in a food processor too.
