Tasty Carrot Soup


I will start off by saying I had never really cooked before 19 days ago. That's when I decided to make a lifestyle change.

However, in an attempt to regain my health, I've now started. One of the first things I did was sign up for the Vegetarian Times newsletter. In one of the first emails, I found a carrot soup recipe... So here's my modified version!

Tasty Carrot Soup
yields 6 bowls

1/2 white onion
1/2 cup chopped green onions
1 lb. carrots, peeled and chopped
3 cups water
1/2 cup instant oats
3 small white mushrooms
3/4 cup almond milk
1/2 tsp. ground ginger
1/2 tsp. allspice
salt and pepper to taste

1. In a saucepan on high heat, bring the carrots, white onions, green onions, oats and water to a boil. Stir frequently until the oats are cooked and the carrots are fork-tender (about 8 minutes).
2. Transfer all contents into a blender with the milk and mushrooms or use an immersion blender.
3. Once blended, add the ginger, allspice, salt and pepper. Garnish with green onions on top when serving.
