Carrot Soup Recipe - Easy and Healthy

I was once a person who was not so fond of soups. But recently I have developed liking for soup and every now and then I make it at home. But of course I have not blogged  about them. Yesterday I made carrot soup for my guests and they were so good I couldn't resist myself from blogging about it. This is a very healthy soup and also very easy to make. Here is the recipe for Carrot soup which I have made without using any vegetable stock. So you don't need any special ingredients, just can make with the ingredients that are readily available in the pantry.
