Ingredients

  • 1 medium yellow onion - roughly chopped
  • 1 pound carrots - roughly chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic - minced
  • 2 teaspoon ginger - finely diced
  • 3 cups veggie broth
  • 2 tablespoon fresh orange juice
  • ½ cup coconut milk
  • salt & pepper, to taste

Optional toppings:

Instructions

  • Bring a medium pot to med-high heat. Add a splash of water, your onion, and your carrots. Allow the onion and carrots to sauté for 6-7 minutes, adding more water as needed to prevent sticking.
  • Add your ginger and garlic to the pot, allow to sauté for another minute (until ginger and garlic are fragrant).
  • Add your vegetable broth to the pot. Give everything a stir, then cover the pot and bring to a boil. Once it reaches a boil, lower the temperature to medium and simmer for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, the carrots should be very soft and very easily pierced with a fork. If they are not yet soft, allow the soup to continue to simmer until they are.
  • Transfer the contents of the pot to a high powered blender and blend until smooth (alternatively, you could also use an immersion blender for this, though it likely will come out smoother with a high powered blender).
  • Return the blended soup to the original pot and return to the heat. Add the orange juice, coconut milk, and salt & pepper. Stir to incorporate everything evenly. Allow to remain on the stove top until everything is evenly warmed through, and then remove from the stovetop.
  • Serve and top with optional toppings if desired. Enjoy!
