ROASTED CARROT-FENNEL SOUP
Kudos to my sis! This former fast-food junkie has become a lot more conscious of the foods she prepares for her family in recent years. The fact that her husband has had a heart attack (requiring quadruple bypass surgery) and a stroke in the past few years--as well as being diagnosed diabetic--has most likely had something to do with this. In any event, I couldn't be happier that she is trying to eat better and to make sure her family does the same! Knowing that I'm a veggie, she has been sharing any good vegetarian recipes that come her way. This one comes from a neighbor who is quite the creative chef. Simple and delicious, it's the perfect dinner for a cold winter night. Serve with a warm crusty loaf of homemade bread, and you're in business. Thanks, sis : ) !

Tips:
- Choose the right carrots. For the best flavor, choose carrots that are firm and brightly colored. Avoid carrots that are limp or have brown spots.
- Roast the carrots and fennel before adding them to the soup. This step intensifies their flavor and gives the soup a richer color.
- Use a good quality vegetable broth. The flavor of the broth will come through in the soup, so it's important to use a broth that you like the taste of.
- Don't overcook the soup. The carrots and fennel should be tender but still have a little bit of bite to them. If you overcook the soup, the vegetables will become mushy.
- Serve the soup with a garnish of fresh herbs or a drizzle of olive oil. This will add a pop of color and flavor to the soup.
Conclusion:
This roast carrot and fennel soup is a delicious and healthy way to warm up on a cold day. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a comforting and flavorful soup, give this recipe a try.
