I love this soup. So does the rest of my family. I have requests to make it often. I pretty much keep to the recipe, but use organic ingredients and low sodium chicken broth.

Absolutely delicious! I omitted the tomato puree, because one of my kids doesn't like tomatoes. It was still wonderful! My youngest children didn't like it because it was red from the beets, but everyone else loved it. Very healthy. Very good.

I diced all the veggies so they would all be about the same size, and used leeks instead of onions because that's what I had. Not sure it needed the honey as it was a little on the sweet side, but still very good. Will definitely make again.

Loved this! I did not use honey or potatoes (for carbs!) but still came out yummy :) I used red onion so the color and taste would pop. I recommend using Trader Joe's pre peeled beets (the whole package). Enjoy!!!

Delicious. Definitely hold the caraway if it's not a flavor you're a big fan of, it's pretty strong in this. One thing I'll change next time is adding more liquid, I prefer that it have more broth. At least another cup or two of veggie broth and a half a cup more of tomato puree would help.

I have the Moosewood Cookbook, from which this recipe comes, and have made this soup to rave reviews. Whether or not it is an authentic Russian borscht, it is still absolutely delicious! Everyone loves it. My grandfather, who always refused to eat vegetables in any way, shape or form, enthusiastically gobbled his down right to the last drop.

I have never made borscht before but it's a soup that I absolutely love. Just finished making this recipe as is and it is FANTASTIC. I think I will eat this all day.
