Blender Coconut Carrot Ginger Soup

I actually FEEL healthy when I eat this soup…..if that makes sense

Serves 2

Ingredients:

4 large carrots, peeled and chopped

1 large sweet onion, chopped

1 piece of ginger, about 1 1/2 inches, peeled

1/4 can of coconut milk (actually cream of the coconut)

1c water

1 orange, squeezed

1/2 bouillon cube

Directions:

Sautee carrots and onion together in medium pan with a little oil. Cook until a bit softened, or when onions are translucent.

Add all ingredients to a vitamix or soup blender and hit the soup button! Or you can turn it on slow speed and increase gradually until high speed. Cook about 6 minutes.

**Please note. I made this in my vitamix on the soup setting and it came out delicious. I have not tried doing it any other way, however, if you do not have a soup blender I would first cook onion, then add ginger and carrots and cook until soft. Add the water and bouillon and bring to a boil. Wait until its cooked about 15 minutes, use an immersion blender and blend until smooth. Add the orange and coconut milk at the end and combine well.
