With less than 10-ingredients, this easy carrot ginger soup with turmeric makes for a cozy and healthy meal. The recipe is SCD, Paleo, Whole 30, vegan, gluten free, grain free, dairy free, soy free, egg free, and added sugar free.

Anytime I start feeling run down or on the verge of getting sick, this easy carrot ginger soup recipe is what I make!

It's filled with healthy, immune-boosting ingredients and has a light, refreshing flavor.

Bonus, it's so simple to throw together!

Ingredients:

Ingredients for the soup on a white table.

Vegetable Broth - When it comes to chicken or vegetable broth, homemade is best! It's less expensive than the store bought stuff and doesn't contain any fillers or preservatives. A container of Homemade Vegetable Broth made from veggies scraps is always a staple in my freezer.

Apples - I tend to use Gala apples for this soup, I just prefer the flavor, but really any apple with the exception of Granny Smith will work.

Clementine - I love the sweetness that fresh clementine's (sometimes called cuties) bring to this dish. If you can't find any, then a Valencia orange will also work.

Ginger Root - If you don't have fresh ginger root on hand, then use ½ teaspoon of ground ginger instead.

Turmeric and Ground Black Pepper - Black pepper helps the turmeric get absorbed by your body, so always make sure to use both spices together!

Tips!

Apple peels contain a trove of nutrients, which is why I keep them on for this soup. However, if you don't have a high powered blender such as a Blendtec or Vitamix, then the peels tend to be difficult to blend and you may want to consider peeling the apples before coking.

I enjoy this soup a bit on the thicker side, but if you prefer a thinner soup then simply add more vegetable broth until your desired consistency is reached.

This soup is delicious when served piping hot but when served chilled it's very similar to one of those squeezable fruit/vegetable pouches they sell for kids in the grocery store! So yummy!

Store in an airtight container for 3 to 5 days in the refrigerator or up to 3 months in the freezer.

    So good! I like the spicy kick of the turmeric and ginger combined with the sweetness of the carrots, apples, and clementine. However, it was a little too spicy for my kids. Next time I will make it with half as much on the turmeric and ginger.
    Thanks for sharing your fabulous recipes!
