Carrot, Apple & Ginger Soup with Coconut Milk

Times of distress call for soup, but there’s only so much chicken noodle one can consume, so I created this bright, inviting carrot soup to inject a little more happiness into my quarantine days. I’ve been subscribing to a local Toronto produce delivery box and it’s amazing (check out Foodshare Toronto), but since the box…

Roasted Cauliflower & Mushroom Soup
