Why This Recipe Is So Enjoyable
This soup is a warm and comforting dish that is packed with natural sweetness from fresh carrots. It’s easy to make and perfect for anyone avoiding dairy. The flavors are simple but satisfying, making it a great choice for a healthy meal.
Step 1
Ad the carrots, onions, sweet potato, garlic, and parsley to a large pot. Pour in enough water to just cover the veggies. Cook everything over medium-high heat until the vegetables are nice and tender, which should take about 15 minutes.
Step 2
Stir in the vegetable broth, tomato paste, hot sauce, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Bring the mixture up to a boil, then take the pot off the heat and let it sit for about 10 minutes to cool down a bit.
Step 3
Once it’s cooled, use a stick blender to puree the soup until it’s smooth. If you don’t have a stick blender, carefully transfer the soup in batches to a regular blender—fill it no more than halfway, hold the lid down, and pulse a few times before blending continuously until smooth.
Step 4
Give it a taste and adjust the seasoning if needed, then it’s ready to enjoy!
