Slow Cooker Carrot Ginger Soup Slow Cooker Carrot Ginger Soup
I have said it once and I will say it again and again and again. Soups and sauces are made for the slow cooker. They are a perfect marriage.A few years back, I tried carrot ginger soup. I liked it so much, that my mouth slapped me in the face. It was wondering why we never had it before that day. The soup is that good.I love carrots and ginger. Sadly, I can only find this soup at one restaurant. The owners are not so nice, so I set out to make up a recipe for this soup. I mixed up a few online recipes, added a few personal items and voila! I came up with this recipe.Accidentally, my wife and I found out that the soup can be eaten cold. It will be great during the summer. Plus, it is made in the slow cooker, so your house will not heat up.Enjoy!
