Description

This carrot ginger soup is full of anti-inflammatory ingredients. It’s creamy, spicy, and comforting for a cold winter day, especially if you’re feeling a little under the weather.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tbsp avocado oil
  • 1 small white onion, peeled and chopped
  • 1 shallot, peeled and thinly sliced
  • 5 cloves garlic, peeled and minced
  • 2 inch piece of fresh ginger, peeled and minced
  • 1 lb carrots, scrubbed and chopped
  • 1 quart low sodium vegetable broth
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • Fresh cilantro, parsley, and crushed red pepper for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Heat avocado oil in a stock pot over medium heat.
  2. Add onion and shallot, plus a generous shake of salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 2-3 minutes until onion is translucent.
  3. Add garlic and ginger, continue to stir and cook for another 1-2 minutes.
