Preparation
1
Prepare the vegetables for the soup: Wash and rinse all produce. Dice the onion in 1 cm dices. Peel the potatoes and beets (except one) and cut in 1 cm dices.
IMPORTANT: ensure to set aside 1 small beet for decoration.
2
Cook the soup: In a large pot on medium high, add oil (1/2 tsp, 1 tsp) and onion and cook for about 5 minutes until tender. This should take about 5 minutes.
Once the onions are tender, add salt (1/4 tsp, 1/2 tsp), pepper (1 pinch, 1/8 tsp), herbes de Provence & garlic powder, potato dices, beet dices and water (4 cups, 8 cups). Note that you can adjust the amount of water based on how thick you like the soup. We recommend adding water until it just covers the vegetables in the pot.
Bring the soup to a boil on high heat and cook about 20 minutes until the beets and potato are fork tender.
When the vegetables have 10 minutes left too cook, turn on the oven to 430F to heat the ciabatta buns.
3
Add the coconut mylk: Set aside about 1 tsp of coconut mylk & vegetable stock concentrate per serving to garnish. Add the rest of the coconut mylk & vegetable stock concentrate to the soup.
4
Blend the soup: Place the soup in the blender and blend until smooth, about 1 minute. If required, blend the soup in 2 batches to ensure the blender is not overfilled. Return the blended soup to the pot. Combine. Taste and adjust salt and pepper based as desired.
5
Prepare the toppings & warm up the buns: Cut the ciabatta buns in 2 and place them on a baking sheet, cut side down. Heat in the oven for about 2 minutes. Peel the beet set aside on step 1 and slice it as thin as possible.

BEET
Beets are high in a compound called nitrates. When we consume nitrates, bacteria in our saliva converts this to nitrites which increases the bioavailability of nitric oxide. This increase in nitric oxide from consuming beets, or beetroot juice, has been shown to lower blood pressure, improve exercise performance, and support health lung function
