Carrot Ginger Soup

Since summer is on the way , I've been feeling the need to make as many soups as possible before its too late! My husband LOVES fresh ginger, so what better soup to make than carrot ginger soup?!? This soup is so great because it's delicious, even without adding any heavy cream.

• Ingredients
• 1 diced medium red onion
• 1-2 Tbsp olive oil
• 4 Tbsp of minced fresh ginger
• 2-3 cloves finely minced garlic
• 1½ c. chopped carrots
• 3 c. vegetable broth
• salt and pepper to taste
• 
  

Heat the olive oil over medium heat.

Add the onions and cook until soft, then add ginger and garlic and cook about 2-3 minutes.

Add the carrots and vegetable broth.

Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer, covered, until carrots are very tender, about 20-30 minutes.

Puree the soup in a blender.

Serve when at the desired consistency and top with a few cooked carrots.
