VEGETARIAN THANKSGIVING SOUP WITH CARROTS, GINGER, AND COCONUT



Vegetarian Thanksgiving Soup with Carrots, Ginger, and Coconut image

The perfect midwinter soup. Just when you're craving spring, but also desperate to burrow under the covers, this soup adds the perfect blend of coziness and fire to keep you warm, snug, and dreaming of spring's bounty. Carrots, maple syrup, and coconut cream add sweetness. Ginger, onions, and garlic add a touch of zing. And a bit of pesto swirled in, with a dollop of sour cream, add just the right hints of savory and tangy to make your heart sit up and leap on a cold winter's night. Garnish with coconut milk and fresh parsley.

Roasted Carrots, Thanksgiving Favorite image

Carrots are sweet and roasting makes them even sweeter. The seasonings were just right. I didn't need to roast as long as the recipe stated. Since cooking times vary with ovens, watch these really close.

THANKSGIVING CARROTS

This delicious recipe came from a family friend that got it from a lady she works with. Every Thanksgiving they have a holiday potluck meal and this is what the lady always brings (hense the name). It's more like a unigue carrot cake rather than just "carrots". Another recipe that would make a great dessert as well as a side...

2 large eggs, beaten
