1 (750ml) bottle dry red wine, such as Malbec or Cabernet Sauvignon

2 cups Organic Beet Juice

1 cup apple cider (unsweetened recommended)

1/4 cup + 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup, to taste

4 cinnamon sticks

4 star anise

1 teaspoon cloves

1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1 navel or blood orange, chopped into wedges

1/4 cup brandy

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 honey crisp apple, for serving

Instructions:

  1. Pour the wine, beet juice, apple cider, and pure maple syrup into a large pot and heat over medium-low.

Beet and Butternut Squash Soup

Beet And Butternut Squash Soup

 

Look what happens when you take two nutrient dense and delicious vegetables and put them together to make a wonderfully healthy soup.  

One word....YUM!!!!

Sweet, earthy beets brighten up a traditional butternut soup while working as a tonic for the liver and a purifier for the blood. 

 
Ingredients
For the Beets:
4 medium sized beets
2 tablespoons olive oil
sea salt, to taste
4-6 ounces chicken stock
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1 teaspoon fresh rosemary
 
For the Butternut Squash Soup:
2 tablespoons coconut oil
1 leek, top removed, white section cut into ¼ inch rounds
2-2.5 pounds butternut squash, peeled, seeded, and cut into 1 inch chunks (about 6 cups)
2 cups chicken stock
4-8 ounces full fat coconut milk
3-4 sage leaves
sea salt, to taste
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350°F
Place the beets in a pyrex container and coat with oil and sprinkle with sea salt. Add ½ cup of water then cover with foil. Bake for 30 minutes, or until the beets are tender enough to pierce with a knife. Remove from the oven when they are cool enough to handle them and remove the skin. Place in a blender with enough chicken stock or water to blend to a creamy, pourable consistency. Add the vinegar, rosemary and season with sea salt to taste. Return to a pan on the stove top to keep warm.
Prepare the butternut squash soup. Chop the squash and leeks then heat the coconut oil in a large pot. Add the leeks and cook until soft. Stir in the squash, cook for a minute or two then add the chicken stock.
Cover, cook for 12-15 minutes then remove from the heat, transfer to a blender and puree using the coconut milk to thin out to a creamy, but pourable consistency. Add the sage leaves and a pinch or two of sea salt. Blend again to incorporate.
To serve, fill each bowl with the butternut soup then pour in a small stream of beet soup in a circular motion. Garnish with extra rosemary and serve.

Sweet Potato Fries with a Hint of Sage and Beet Ketchup

Sweet Potato Fries With A Hint Of Sage And

Beet Ketchup

 

Ingredients:

  • 2 large sweet potatoes, peeled (if desired) and sliced into thin 1/2-inch (thick) strips

  • 1 tbsp melted coconut oil

  • 1 tsp smoked paprika

  • 1 tsp garlic powder

  • 1 tsp dried sage

  • 1/2 tsp coarse sea salt

  • Optional topping: fresh sage, chopped

  • The Beet Lady Beet Ketchup

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F

2. Slice off beet leaves close to the tip of the beet. Wash beets thoroughly, then wrap them loosely in foil. 

3. Transfer the wrapped beets to a baking sheet. Roast for 50-60 minutes. Check the beets mid-way through. If they are starting to look dry or are scorching on the bottoms, dribble a tablespoon of water over the beets before re-wrapping. Beets are done when a fork easily cuts through the middle. Let cool enough to handle. Remove outer skin and transfer to a food processor. Add ketchup, cayenne pepper, balsamic, honey and olive oil. Pulse until pureed. Set aside.

4. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top. Spray the rack with nonstick spray.

5. Add sliced sweet potatoes to a large bowl and toss with melted coconut oil, garlic powder, paprika, dried sage and sea salt. Toss very well to coat. Spread sweet potatoes out in a single layer on the wire rack. Bake for 20 minutes at 425 degrees F, remove and toss, then bake for 15-20 minutes longer. I know using a wire rack can be a pain but it really helps crisp all sides. Try not to crowd the sweet potatoes. If necessary, use a second rack. If fries have not reached desired level of crisp, leave them in for another 5-10 minutes.

6. Remove and let cool slightly. Top with fresh sage and additional sea salt if desired. Dip in ketchup!

Cranberry Ketchup Stuffed Turkey Burgers

Cranberry Ketchup Stuffed Turkey Burgers

All the flavors of Thanksgiving in a burger - what could be better?

Stuffed Turkey Burgers

SERVES: 2 (makes two huge burgers)
TIME: 20 minutes

* 1 tablespoon olive oil
* 1/2 cup finely minced onion
* 1 tablespoon very finely chopped fresh rosemary
* 3/4 pound ground turkey
* 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

* 1/2 teaspoon coarse sea salt
* 1/2 cup Classic Bread Stuffing
* 2 hamburger buns
* The Beet Lady Cranberry Ketchup

Heat the olive oil in a small skillet over low heat. Add the onions and rosemary and cook for about ten minutes, or until quite soft and sweet. Let the onion mixture cool a bit and then put in a large mixing bowl with the turkey, salt and pepper. Mush the ingredients together with a wooden spoon or your hands. Form a quarter of the mixture into a thin patty. Mound half of the stuffing in the center of the patty. Take another quarter of the mixture and form it into a patty and place on top, sealing the edges so that all the stuffing is snug inside. Repeat with the remaining turkey and stuffing.

Preheat your grill or broiler. Cook the burgers for five minutes on the first side, flip and cook for four more minutes or until the burgers are browned and firm. Cut the buns in half and grill alongside the burgers. Spread the buns with The Beet Lady Cranberry Ketchup and add the burgers.
