Childhood Memories

As a child, soup was taken almost every night before other meals because my Dad liked soup and, looking back, most likely as a means of making us eat our vegetables. I was usually not thrilled about this because I was pretty picky. However, if it was filtered and made into a creamy pureed soup, I liked it because it was very tasty.

I say this because I don't really like cooked carrots, but when ginger and sautéed onions are added to be blended into a creamy soup, then I love it. It reminds me of those days when I was at Mom's kitchen table with my pureed soup.

This delicious soup packed with healthy beta carotene can be prepared in less than 40 minutes.
