This is a recipe I tweaked myself. The flavor goes beyond the simple jar stuff. With the addition of the meat, this is a meal. Traditionally borsht is served with sour cream. I use plain yogurt as a substitute since sour cream often contains white vinegar. White vinegar is a derivative of corn, and of course I avoid all corn derivatives.
One take away: This may make your pooh look like you're bleeding. Remember this so you don't have a panic attack!
