PinThis is one of my tried and true recipes that I’ve been making for years. Long before I was married or had kids, when my best friend and I were living together, this soup was in my weekly recipe rotation. Like many kids who shun their veggies, my friend was hard to cook for. But, much to my surpise, she absolutely loved this naturally sweet soup. Now I make it for my family and they love it just as much as she did!
PinWhat You Need for Carrot Ginger Soup
Not only is this recipe addicting to eat, but it’s made by only using a few super healthy ingredients. Most of which you may already have on hand. Here’s what you need to make your new favorite soup:
- Carrots: One of the key nutrients in carrots is beta-carotene, a powerful antioxidant that the body converts into vitamin A, which is essential for maintaining healthy vision, as well as for the growth and development of cells in the body.
- Ginger: Ginger has long been used in traditional medicine to help with a variety of ailments, including nausea, sore throat, and even headaches. It is also well known for its anti-inflammatory properties.
- Onion: Adding an onion in this recipe gives this soup a rich umami flavor and a slight sweetness that takes it to the next-level.
- Vegetable Stock: I use vegetable stock in this recipe so that it can be vegetarian, but if you have no preference, chicken stock works great too!
