In hopes of getting you all motivated to eat your veggies, today I’m bringing you my favorite soup recipe.
I fell in love with a curried cream of carrot soup years ago but it calls for heavy cream and we all know that doesn’t exactly fit the skinny food requirements I’m trying to live by.
I’ve modified the original recipe to fit my healthy, low-fat diet. This soup is delicious and sure to please almost anyone! I’ve removed most of the fat but kept the TASTE!!
Skinny Curried Carrot & Cauliflower Soup
