CARROT SOUP RECIPE

carrot-soup

   I am adding a ‘Soup’ category in my blog first time now. Coz, this is my first ‘Soup’ post. Yes, I am not a soup person, no body in home either. The reason is I am very lazy to make soup, but can have it if someone makes for me and will be more than happy to have it. Good for my weight and health too… My mom makes some soups back home, in which carrot soup will be more in frequence. She adds tomato and wont add butter in her soup. But I tried this way from a cookbook.
   I love sweet corn soup and tomato soup more than carrot soup, sure will try those and post in recent future. And the best thing I love in soup is the crouton. Also I would love to pair soup with a bread toast. Wish I could make soups more often and develop a love with it, for my health sake at least. If only I have this habit, Aj would consider having soup. I have tough times in making him drink a soup even if he has cold and a hot bowl of soup with pepper will be comforting him.
