How to Make Creamy Vegan Carrot Ginger Soup

This simple, 1-POT, 8-ingredient carrot ginger soup starts with a savory-sweet, gingery base of sautéed onion, garlic, ginger, and a whole lot of CARROTS! Two whole pounds to be precise. The remaining ingredients are all pantry staples, meaning you may be able to make this soup…right now! Recipes that don’t require running to the store are our JAM! Do you have salt (of course!), vegetable broth (we think so!), and canned coconut milk (probably!)? What about red pepper flakes? We always do, but they’re optional if you don’t want a spicy kick! Throw it all in (minus the coconut milk) and let that thing simmer! While the soup is simmering, we strongly recommend making the optional sweet and spicy seed topping! It’s as simple as mixing together pepitas, sunflower seeds, maple syrup, and spices and baking until lightly golden. When the carrots are super tender and the flavors have developed, add the coconut milk and purée into a super creamy, luxurious texture. The sweet and spicy seeds are the perfect textural contrast! We hope you LOVE this carrot ginger soup! It’s:CreamySpicyVibrantGingeryWarming& SO delicious! It freezes well and comes together with mostly pantry staples, making it a great dish to prepare any time you have an abundance of carrots. For serving, we love a swirl of sriracha and pairing with dishes like our Baked Crispy Peanut Tofu, Crispy Brussels Sprouts with Sriracha Aioli, Pad Thai Spring Rolls, or Vegan Ginger Sesame Noodles with Crispy Tofu.
