Curried Carrot and Sweet Potato Soup
9:49 AM
This might be my favorite soup. It seems that I always have the ingredients on hand, and I think that this was actually one of the first meals that I made for Brendan when we started dating (3 years ago!) Of course back then I would have made a nice crusty bread to dip into it....but oh how the times have changed. You really don't need to top this soup with anything, but sometimes if I have a little grain free bread leftover from another meal, I will make some thick croutons to go along with it....I will post a recipe for those soon!
Until then..make a batch of this soup and let me know what you think!
