What are your family’s top 3 favorite meals?
Only three?
My favorite (since I haven’t lived in a family situation for many years) meal changes from day to day and month to month. And it’s usually whatever I’ve chosen to eat in any given moment or situation…; -)
Today, it’s Borscht … my improvisation of it, that is…; -)
This soup was originally a peasant dish from eastern Europe. It evolved over the centuries from a ‘cow parsnips’ and greens base to its modern-day presentation, made with a beetroot base.
The soup in the photo below is from the pot I made with 6 beetroots and their greens. I also added a small onion, garlic, and spinach leaves. It’s made to my taste with salt, pepper, and a tablespoon of sugar and lemon juice each, added to the pot.
Tomorrow’s favorite meal will be whatever I’m in the mood for then, perhaps leftover Borscht… But the options are limited to plant-based foods, as I’m a practicing vegan… So, yes, I eat a lot of tofu, rice, and beans … not to mention fruit and grians of all kinds…
