Borscht for Breast Cancer Protection

Borscht with a Hint of Honey 

If you’re not used to eating borscht, then the sound of ‘cabbage soup’ may seem strange but once you try this you may be as hooked as I am.   This salty and hearty soup is a true comfort food and provides two major breast cancer fighting foods – cabbage and beets.

• 3 cups shredded cabbage
• 4 cups organic vegetable broth
• 2 cans (15 ounces) shoestring beets with liquid
• 1 teaspoon tamari
• 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
• 1 teaspoon honey

In a medium saucepan, cook cabbage in vegetable broth over medium heat for 10 minutes, then add remaining ingredients and cook for 5 more minutes. Serve hot or cold.
