Enjoy this comforting carrot soup recipe, which combines the tasteful combination of fresh ginger, cilantro and orange juice. This bright orange pureed soup is full of vitamin C and may help to fight off winter colds and flu. Rachelle enjoys eating a small bowl of this soup with grilled fish for supper, or with a 6” whole wheat tuna and veggie wrap for lunch. The soup freezes well and tastes especially great when made with local organic carrots.
