Carrot Soup

This soup is so sweet with the carrots. Peanut loves it. I make sure to puree hers with the spinch as it is hard to chew for a baby.

2 Tbs olive oil
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1 small onion chopped

Heat oil in a large pot, saute 5 minutes.

Then add:

4 cups vegetable broth
2 cups water
1 lb carrots, peeled and chopped into small chunks
1 pinch ground cinnamon
1 bay leaf
1/4 tsp pepper
1 Tbs fresh dill

Bring all to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer 30 minutes covered.
Uncover and remove the cinnamon stick and bay leaf.
Add: 1 sweet potato already cooked or 1/2 cup canned sweet potato drained. Puree the soup in a food processor or blender until smooth and no lumps remain.
You can add 2 cups fresh baby spinach and cook until slightly wilted (apprx 10 minutes.) If you want too.

Serves 10-12
