Hot Beet Borscht
Borscht is an old-world favorite. It can be served hot or cold. For winter, borscht is
nice hot and this is an equally refreshing cold soup for summer.
Ingredients:
4 large beets with tops
1 medium onion, thinly sliced, slices quartered
2 cloves garlic, minced
Juice of 1 lemon
3 quarts water
1 lb peeled potatoes cut into bite-sized pieces
1 stalk celery chopped
1 carrot cut into small cubes
½ liter tomato juice
salt to taste
lemon juice to taste
Instructions:
1. Cut off beet greens. Wash, chop, and set aside. Peel beets, coarsely shred in
food processor or with hand grater or cube in small cubes and put them into a
stock pot.
2. Add onion, salt, garlic, celery, carrots, and water to stock pot. Cover and bring
to a boil over high heat. Turn heat down to medium, and simmer gently for
about 20-25 minutes.
3. Add potatoes to stock pot along with reserved beet greens. Cook 8 to 10
minutes on medium-high heat, or until potatoes are soft.
4. Adjust seasonings with salt, tomato and lemon juice. Borscht should have a
sweet and sour flavor. Since everyone's palate is just a little different, it may
take some playing with the salt, and lemon juice to reach that perfect balance
of flavor. Let your taste will be your guide.

How to Plan a Vegetarian Diet
Planning a vegetarian diet does take some knowledge. When removing meat,
chicken and fish from a diet, learning how to replace the missing protein, vitamins
and minerals is important. By using meat alternatives, such as beans, lentils, soy,
tofu, nuts, and seeds (and eggs and dairy), all protein requirements should be met.
Vitamin and mineral intake may be trickier, so here are some helpful tips.
Vitamin B12
Since this essential nutrient is mostly found in animal-based foods, such as meat,
dairy and eggs, strict vegetarians have to find alternative sources. Good choices
include fortified soy beverages, fortified "mock meats" (such as veggie burgers),
nutritional yeast and vitamin supplements.
Calcium
Vegetarians who consume two to three servings of dairy products daily will probably
consume sufficient calcium. Those who restrict dairy will have to increase their intake
of calcium-rich foods by including leafy greens, almonds, sesame seeds, beans, figs
or calcium-fortified
Iron
The richest source of well-absorbed iron is meat, so vegetarians need to look for
alternative foods. Fortified breakfast cereals, beans (chickpeas, lentils, navy, lima
and kidney beans), oatmeal, firm tofu, dried apricots and pumpkin seeds all contain
iron. Pair any food from this list with vitamin C–providing strawberries, potatoes,
tomatoes, sweet peppers or citrus fruit to help boost iron absorption.
Zinc
An essential mineral in the diet, ample amounts of zinc are found in meat. To replace
zinc, vegetarians can choose these foods: beans and chickpeas, soy nuts, cashews,
pumpkin and sunflower seeds, almonds and yogurt.
Seeing a registered dietitian is a great first step to help plan a balanced diet. They
can help ensure that all nutrient needs are met by following a well-balanced diet.

Vegetarian Facts
Did You Know?
Flexitarians are people who eat vegetarian meals most often but still enjoy meat
occasionally. Many people choose this increasingly popular lifestyle because of their
growing concern for the environment, since they believe that raising animals for the
sole purpose of using their meat as food is an inefficient, planet-harming process.
While animals eat large quantities of grain, they only produce small amounts of meat,
dairy products or eggs in return. In fact, it can take up to 7œ kg (16 lb) of grain to
produce just 500 g (1 lb) of meat.
Choosing a diet based on vegetables, beans and grains is less harmful to the food
supply and to the earth, and cutting back on meat consumption is one way many
environmentalists help protect the planet.

Hidden Animal Ingredients in Foods
There are many hidden animal products in foods. Many animal ingredients are
present in very small amounts. Some animal products, such as casein and whey —
both derived from dairy products — are acceptable for vegetarians to eat but are not
acceptable to vegans. Others, such as rennet (which comes from the stomach lining
of calves and other baby animals), is unacceptable to all vegetarians.

Pesticides" report. This includes The Dirty Dozen, a list of the fruits and vegetables
likely to contain the highest amounts of pesticide residue. It also features the Clean
15, a list of fruits and vegetables least likely to contain pesticides.
How this helps: Choose organic produce when buying anything listed on The Dirty
Dozen. As the EWG says, "The health benefits of a diet rich in fruits and vegetables
outweigh the risks of pesticide exposure."
