DETOX BROTHS

Combine equal amounts of the above vegetables and steam in a steamer basket. Make sure the water is below the level of the vegetables. Steam for a few minutes, until vegetables are cooked but still slightly crunchy. Combine vegetables, water and your favorite herbs in a blender and puree until smooth.

Add the chicken or vegetable stock to the onions. Upon boiling, add the cabbage and its cooking liquid. Add the beets, one cup of beet cooking liquid, caraway seeds, honey, salt and pepper to taste. Simmer for ten minutes, skimming carefully. Remove the soup from the heat. Add lemon juice and heat just to the boiling point. Serve with dill weed garnish.
