Yes this carrot and courgette soup has a creamy feel to it however it’s dairy free, as always with me. The secret to still getting that thick creamy texture is coconut milk, which I use a lot in the soups I make. I think it adds a bit of extra flavour as well giving you a nice thick soup, something you want on cold winter days!
Winter is also what the flavours in this soup remind me off. The nutmeg in this carrot and courgette soup gives it that warm comforting winter feel that I love around this time of year. It’s super easy to make and you’ll have enough to last you a few days or to keep in the freezer.
