Kyera's Hearty Beef Borscht image

My friend's mom used to make 'garden' soup every Sunday. She would go through her fridge and any unused veggies would be thrown into the soup pot. This is my version; hearty, thick, and chock full of veggies. It is important to add the diced beets at the end to keep the color appealing. My daughter goes crazy for this soup; it is very tasty and filling, best served warm.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover beef. I had some leftover roast beef and it worked perfectly in this soup.
