CREAMY CARROT SOUP (RAW)

  Wow, my very first attempt to make a savory smoothie, a.k.a. soup, exceeded all my expectations! This is freaking delicious, I just ate a huge bowl:

Looks like any other puréd soup, and is warm too. If I did not know it was raw, I would not suspect anything.

A good sprinkling of paprika on top, for both looks and taste. Garnishing adds to the overall experience of eating. And we eat not only for our tastebuds, but mainly for our whole system, right? You know, for nutrients. And nutrients this soup delivers!

The recipe (serves 1):

3 carrots
1/2 inch (1cm) piece of fresh ginger (no need to peel)
1/2 avocado
1 small handful of sunflower seeds
1 generous cup (3 dl) vegetable stock, warm/hot
a dash of cayenne pepper
paprika for garnishing

+ Peel and roughly chop the carrots. Throw all ingredients (except paprika) into the blender and process until creamy. Add stock if needed.

  How quick and easy is that! And nutritious and good for you!
