LEMONGRASS-GINGER-CARROT SOUP
This simple soup can be eaten hot or cold, in winter, or in summer. Many are aware of the healing benefits of carrots, mainly the antioxidant-rich carotenoids that are known to pack anticancer powers. We love them because they're a simple and delicious food. Combine them with a hefty dose of gelatin-rich bone broth, a touch of lemongrass and ginger, and you're left with a bowl of soup that beats any sugar-laden cold-pressed juice on the market.

Steps:
- "Heat a large soup pot over medium heat. When hot, add the butter and oil. When the butter has melted, add the onion, season with salt, and cook for five minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onion begins to soften. Add the carrots, lemongrass, and ginger, stir, and cover. Cook for ten minutes. Add the coconut milk and broth, bring the soup to a simmer, and simmer over low heat until the carrots are cooked through, about 20 to 25 minutes. Carefully puree the soup in a food processor or blender (or using an immersion blender). Return the soup to the pot, season to taste with salt, and serve hot.".
