Ukrainian cuisine boasts unlimited variations of borsch. You always look for something light and healthy to eat on hot summer days. This vegetarian summer Bborsch with beet tops and kvass is a perfect option! This borsch is made with vegetables only, it’s rich, and has lots of different flavors. It can be served cold, too. And beet tops have more vitamins and micronutrients then bulbs. If you didn’t happen to get beets with tops, use mangold or cabbage. 

Try adding beet kvass, too! It makes borsch even more special. Here’s the recipe.  

The combination of vegetables can vary but for meatless borsch like this one, it’s important to use as many different vegetables as possible.

Borsch is art. Enjoy making and eating it!
