Recipe

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds carrots, sliced
  • 1 pinch basil
  • 1 pinch oregano
  • Seasonings to taste
  • 1 tablespoon peanut butter
  • 1 dash hot sauce—horseradish and ginger and habanero peppers or
  • Tabasco and horseradish sauce
  • Water

Directions

  1. Peel the carrots if they are old, otherwise just wash the carrots clean then slice them into a pan and add water to cover.
  2. Add a pinch of basil, a pinch of oregano, and whatever other herbs you prefer.
  3. Bring to boil, let simmer until the carrots are well cooked, then puree them.
  4. Add a tablespoon of peanut butter, blend that in too -- it makes the soup go very creamy.
  5. Blend in a healthy dash of hot sauce.
  6. You can serve this with a dollop of sour cream if you like, or straight.
