Cream of Carrot Soup

Okay this recipe is not exactly spring or summer friendly but it is still very good and if you have with a nice garden salad topped with cherry tomatoes, yellow peppers, cucumbers and onions it will give it that spring/summer feel. This recipe is quite simple and shouldn't be too overwhelming.

Cream of Carrot Soup

6 large fresh carrots or 24 baby carrots
3 cups of vegetable broth
2 medium white potatoes
1/2 cup of non fat cream
1/2 tsp. onion and garlic powder mixture
1/2 tsp. cumin
1/2 tsp. paprika
1/2 cup water
1 cup of garlic onion croutons

1. Peel the potatoes and carrots
2. cut them into chunks and put them into the vegetable broth and water
3. allow them to simmer for 25 minutes and then puree it in a blender
4. add the spices and the cream and stir well
5. serve with garlic onion croutons
