Carrot Tomato Soup

Carrot Tomato Soup is simple, healthy and very easy to make. I make this soup for my daughter due to the immense health benefits of carrot and tomato. Carrot is rich in vitamin A and is good for maintaining a healthy eye sight. Tomato is also rich is vitamin C and offers lots of health benefits. 


If you have a poor/picky eater, simply boil the veggies and make a soup like this and give it to your child. This soup is also very good when we get cold or sore throats. Drinking this hot soup not only makes you full, but also gives you number of health benefits. Soups and salads are always a healthy option compared to junk and processed foods.



It is always good to drink this soup as it is instead of drinking sugar loaded soft-drinks or aerated drinks. Canned juices are loaded with lots of preservatives, so we can drink this soup without adding the spices simply as juice. I also make palak soup and it is a family favorite.


Ingredients:                                             Prep. Time: 30 Mins, Serves 4
2 cups grated carrot/1 big carrot
1 cup chopped tomato/2 tomatoes
1 cup water
Salt to taste
1 tsp pepper powder
1 tsp cinnamon powder

Procedure:
Boil the grated carrot and chopped tomatoes together in 1 cup water.
Let it cool.
After cooling, grind the above mixture into a thin juice.
Strain and discard the pulp.
After straining you will get carrot and tomato soup, add cinnamon, pepper powder and salt to taste. Boil this again by adding more water if needed.



Note: Add water to the soup if needed.
You can add other vegies to this soup while boiling.
You can also add onion and garlic to enhance the taste.
Reduce the cinnamon and pepper powder if you don’t need a spicy soup.
