    Spicy Carrot Soup

    January 4, 2015

     

    Happy Sunday!  We here in the Midwest are enjoying wind chills in the double digits! I have been craving soups after the heavy foods from the holidays. I was trying to decide what I wanted to make.  Then I was gifted with 6 lbs. of carrots from my dad.  So what's a girl to do?  Make recipes with carrots, of course!  Since I am getting ready to do a 21 day real food challenge from RESTART®, I decided a carrot soup full of bone broth would be just what I needed.  It’s full of good fats, aromatic spices that warm you on even the coldest winter day.  This recipe has a vegan option for those who choose to use vegetable broth.

    Makes 10 cup servings

     

    1/4 c. coconut oil

    1 t. chili flakes (optional)

    1/2 - 1 can full fat coconut milk (depending on preferred consistency)

    1 T. lime juice

    salt to taste (I used around 1 1/2 t. as my broth wasn’t salted)

    1. Melt coconut oil in a soup pot over medium heat. 

    2. Add onions and carrots and sauté until onions are translucent, about 5-10 minutes. 

    3. Add garlic and sauté for an additional minute. 

    4. Pour in broth and add spices. 

    5. Bring to a boil, then lower heat to medium low and simmer covered for 25 minutes or until carrots are soft.
