CARROT GINGER SOUP

Carrot Ginger Soup image

This light, flavorful carrot ginger soup is vegan! It's made with pantry staples and comes together in a hurry, yet always seems to impress. Fresh ginger makes a big difference-and what isn't used can be wrapped tightly and tossed in the freezer to use later. -Jenna Olson, Manchester, Missouri

I've made this soup several times and I always add a little bit of cayenne pepper to give it a little bit of a kick. It's the perfect soup for a cold winter day.
