Carrots are good for your eyesight…at least that is what they say. We also got a gigantic shipment of them in our recent Abundant Harvest organic vegetable delivery on Saturday and needed to find a unique recipe we hadn’t eaten before. We were both feeling kindof heavy from all the Holiday eating after an awesome food focused weekend in Big Bear with some food enthusiast friends of ours, so we thought we’d go for something light. This Carrot ginger soup recipe sounded like just the thing. The best part is, its really good for you and you can omit the cream if you want an even lighter version. On my way to terrific eyesight today!
