LOW-FAT CARROT GINGER SOUP

This recipe contains the beginner cook’s magic word: “microwave”.  It is a low-fat, three-step recipe that’s perfect for the culinarily-challenged and goes from raw ingredients to steaming soup in less than 10 minutes.  One serving contains 5% of your daily sodium intake, whereas an equivalent portion of a typical canned soup contains 55%.  High quantities of vitamin A and fiber only add to this soup’s appeal.

Frozen carrots 1 cup
Hot water 1.5 cups
Vegetable or chicken bullion 1 cube
Skim milk 1/2 cup
Ginger, grated 1 tsp
Honey 1tsp

Directions:

1. Put all ingredients into blender, and puree.
