Next, add the vegetable broth to the pot and bring it to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium-low and let the soup simmer for about 30 minutes, or until the beets are tender.

Once the beets are cooked, remove the pot from the heat and let it cool slightly. Using an immersion blender or a regular blender, puree the soup until smooth. If the soup is too thick, you can add more vegetable broth to achieve your desired consistency.
