CURRIED CARROT SOUP

Curried Carrot Soup
This soup is healthy and deliciously flavorful thanks to the curry and creamy coconut milk


INGREDIENTS

1/2 Tbsp. Italian Blend Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 tsp. curry powder
1 tiny garlic clove
1/4 inch piece fresh ginger, mashed
1/2 lb. carrots, chopped
3 C low sodium vegetable broth
1/4 C light coconut milk

DIRECTIONS
Instructions:

1) Put the olive oil, curry powder, garlic, ginger, carrots, and 1.5 cups veggie broth in a pan on high heat.

2) Bring to a boil, then lower heat to a simmer until the carrots are soft (about 15 to 20 minutes). Near the end of the time, the veggie broth will have mostly evaporated, so pour in the remaining 1.5 cups.

3) Once the carrots are soft, let the mixture cool a bit, then pour it into a blender and puree it!

4) Transfer the puree back to a pot on medium heat, stir in the coconut milk, and serve warmed! Top with cracked black pepper if desired.

Enjoy! :) Makes about 4 servings.
