Ginger Carrot Soup

serves: 2-3
level: easy

1 (16 oz.) bag of organic carrots
1 Tbsp minced ginger
1 pinch of sea salt (to taste)
1/4 tsp cumin powder
1/4 tsp thyme herb
1/4 tsp sage herb
1/4 tsp lemon grass herb
1/4 cup soy cheese, grated
2-3 Tbsp soy creamer
4 mint leaves (garnish)

Wash, peel and cut ends of carrots. Slice carrots into 1 inch slices. In a medium sauce pan, boil water 2 inches above carrots. Add sea salt, sage, lemon grass, cumin and thyme. Lower heat to medium and cover with lid. Cook until fork tender. Allow to cool and mash carrots with potato masher. Do not drain water. Add soy creamer. Blend in a high-speed blender until pureed. Top with grated soy cheese and garnish with a mint leaf. Serve hot or cold.

This creamy carrot soup recipe is high in beta-cartone, selenium, vitamins A, C and E  and is high in antioxidants known to protect cells against free radicals. The nutrients and health benefits in carrots possess antiseptic qualities to also transport fat and toxins out of the body. It's easy to make, delicious and has incredible health benefits. Stay younger and leaner with the rest of the herbal ingredients added to my "forever young" soup.

In Gusto!
