Carrot Soups
What's not to love about carrot soup?
It's a great choice nutritionally
It's frugal
It's quick
It's satisfying
It's easy to make
It's versatile
AND
It tastes GREAT!
Thanks to my own version of carrot soup I had 6 vegetables for lunch and there's enough left over for at least 3 more servings. I don't know about you but I don't usually eat 6 different vegetables at lunch time!
Here's my version: 5 carrots, 1 red capsicum, 1/4 cauliflower, 1large shucked corn cob, 1 medium potato and 1 medium red kumara, cooked, blended with stock and water..seasoned to taste.
I cruised pinterest for a while before deciding to adapt a recipe to better suit what ingredients I have but above it a collage of some other tempting carrot soups....

German Carrot Soup I can't wait to try this one. It doesn't use stock so a good one for a last minute soup!

Carrot and Cauliflower soup. Recipe uses a whole head of cauliflower and not a drop of cheese sauce in sight!
So, who's hungry?
May your nest be blessed!
