It’s Monday, and a bloody cold one at that. No wonder I’ve been on such a soup kick lately! It’s been my number one craving, especially now that the temperature has fallen a few degrees and my body is slowly entering a state of torpor. (I’ve been craving meatloaf too, but more on that later.)
I recently tried a new carrot-ginger soup recipe. It was a great little kick in the pants (flavour wise that is).
Sorry for the lack of photo.
Mark liked it well enough, and I thought it made a fantastic lunch… a one-two punch of super sweet carrots and fiery ginger. POW POW! It’s a cannonball of very healthy stuff in a very small bowl.
Sadly, the girls weren’t so keen on this soupy superhero. Oh well. I’m not giving up. I will definitely be making carrot soup again.
I used this recipe at AllRecipes. I was looking for one that didn’t use cream or squash because I didn’t have either of those on on hand. I subbed milk instead of evaporated milk. Next time I might use veggie broth instead of chicken for a lighter flavour.
Let me know if you try this! Do you have a favourite carrot soup recipe? I’d love to hear about it.
