spicy ginger carrot soup

threw together a tasty little spicy ginger carrot soup

hence the spice.

onion, chopped

garlic, minced

lots of ginger, grated

1 spicy red pepper- ours was really really spicy

2 large bunches of carrots, chopped

4 cups good veggie stock

1 can coconut milk

cilantro, chopped

sauté up the onion, garlic, ginger, and pepper until soft.  I added a dash of smoked paprika here for a little smokiness. add the chopped carrots stir and follow with the veggie broth. simmer until everything is nice and soft.  add the coconut milk and blend soup until smooth. season with salt and pepper.

top with cilantro.

curious about that pumpkin and grain? well that went into a power pumpkin loaf. more on that adventure later...
