Turn a bunch of carrots into a spiced creamy carrot and ginger soup! It’s rich and satisfying yet light, economical, and packed with anti-inflammatory detox ingredients.

Ingredients

• 1 Tbsp olive oil
• 1 small onion (sliced)
• 1 garlic cloves (sliced)
• 2 Tbsp fresh ginger (minced)
• 1 tsp turmeric powder
• 1 lb carrots (peeled and sliced)
• 2 ½ cups low sodium vegetable broth
• 1/3 cup coconut milk
• 1/4 tsp salt & pepper (more to taste)

Instructions

1. In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onion, salt and pepper and cook for about 3 minutes, or until the onion starts to soften.
2. Add the carrots, stir well, and cook for another 5 minutes.
3. Add ginger, garlic and turmeric, mix well and cook for another minute.
4. Add broth, coconut milk, and bring to the boil.
5. Reduce the heat and simmer for about 15 until the carrots are cooked through and soft.
6. Remove the pot from the heat, check the consistency (you can add or reduce the amount of liquid before blending).
7. Let cool slightly and transfer to a high-powered blender or blend it with an immersion blender. Blend until smooth, taste, and adjust seasonings.
8. Serve warm or cold, with ground black pepper, and lemon or lime wedges for an extra zesty flavor if you like.
