Hearty Okroshka

An easy soup with big flavor. Okroshka is the real centerpiece of a summer table — no summer feels complete without it, at least in households that love Russian cooking. This "hearty" version differs a bit from the classic, so it's a welcome change of pace. The whole secret is using three kinds of meat, which makes the soup genuinely filling while keeping it summer-light.
