Creamy Coconut Carrot soup is easy and versatile. Change the flavors with different spices or seasoning. The recipe calls for cinnamon and cumin but you could omit them and make it more Thai, for example, by adding ginger, curry paste and lime.
Or try curry powder with whatever else you like, such as ginger. You can replace 1/4 of the carrots with an equal amount of peeled chopped sweet potato.
Coconut Carrot Soup freezes well, so make extra for another time, maybe after school snacks with some protein on the side.
I use this Aroy-D brand of coconut milk. It comes in aseptic packaging (not cans) so it’s BPA free and has no guar gum. I find that guar gum and other additives in brands such as Tom’s Thai can upset my delicate stomach.
