Roasted Carrot Soup
If you love a creamy and hearty bowl of soup like me then you will love this soup. It has minimum ingredients and makes a perfect recipe for a weeknight meal. The carrots when roasted with rosemary will give the best flavor you can imagine. The soup is so creamy and you won’t believe that it is vegan. It is best way to use up those carrots sitting at the end of your produce drawer. Serve the soup hot or cold, it tastes good either way. My son who loves carrots was a fan of this soup.
