Sweet Carrot, Lemon and Ginger Soup

April 27, 2015 by Roz 3 Comments

Jesus answered, “I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No man comes to the Father except through Me.” John 14:6 (Why we start each post with a verse.)

Sweet Carrot, Lemon & Ginger Soup
I’m always trying to figure out ways to get more bone broth in my family…especially in my picky kids! I recently made this simple carrot soup for lunch and it was a hit.

Actually, I should have used less ginger for my ultra-picky kid. The others LOVED it.

Sweet Carrot, Lemon & Ginger Soup
A way to make this recipe a little more gourmet would be to roast carrots until they are golden and caramelized, then puree them with the other ingredients. But this mom is a little too busy to make that happen for lunch!

I added some crumbled up seasoned kale chips from the bottom of a snack bag as a topping and it made it crunchy and even more satisfying as a complete meal. If I don’t make the kale chips myself, I’ll get them from Trader Joe’s or at my favorite new wholesale online marketplace, Thrive Market.

Sweet Carrot, Lemon and Ginger Soup

Ingredients

  • 10-12 carrots, roughly chopped
  • 5-6 cups chicken stock (here's our homemade chicken stock recipe)
  • zest of 1 1/2 lemons
  • 2 teaspoosn freshly grated ginger, or 1/2 teaspoon ginger powder
  • 2 tablespoons honey (optional)
  • salt and pepper
  • kale chips, optional topping (find some at Thrive online marketplace)

Instructions

  1. Place carrots and stock in a medium stock pot and bring to a simmer for 20-30 minutes until the carrots are soft. Carefully pour the stock and carrots into a blender (I LOVE my BlendTec), then add the lemon, ginger, honey, and a generous amount of salt and pepper. Blend into a puree, then season, as needed, with salt and pepper. Serve with a honey drizzle (optional) or crumbled kale chips (optional).
