Carrot-Beet Soup

This soup is an excellent source of vitamin A and antioxidants.I've also added tomato and lime juice along with some crushed black pepper to make this soup even more healthy for kids.This soup is a good comfort food for kids during the cold winter.

Ingredients:
Beetroots-2
Carrots-2
Tomatoes-3,medium sized
Black pepper-2 teaspoons,crushed
Salt to taste
Water-5 cups,to boil the vegetables
Lime juice-1 teaspoon

Method:
-Take a pressure cooker and add 5 cups of water and salt to it.
-Wash and chop the vegetables and put them in the cooker for 4-5 whistles.
-Take a blender and add the cooked carrot,tomatoes and beetroots and blend to make a nice smooth puree.
-Put  a strainer on a bowl and strain the puree by mixing it well with the help of a spoon.
-Take a pan and heat the soup for 2-3 minutes and add to the serving bowl.
-Add lime juice and stir well.
-Sprinkle some freshly grounded black pepper.
-Serve hot.
