    Tips and Variations

    Eat it cold - If you’re into cold soups like gazpacho, this vegan soup is delicious when it’s chilled as well. This makes it great for brunches, lunches, or even a picnic! 

    Make it spicy - If you would like to give your soup a little kick, add some crushed red peppers, or a little smoked paprika.

    Use other onions - Use any type of onion you have on hand. Red, yellow, or white onions will all work just fine.

    Add ginger - Try adding in a bit of fresh ginger for an extra dose of flavor! It's a totally delicious variation.

    Use roasted carrots - Instead of boiling your carrots, you can also opt to roast them until soft. This will change up the flavor a bit, making it a touch richer.

    FAQs

    How do you store the soup?

    Store carrot soup in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days, or in the freezer for up to 3 months. 

    How do you reheat the soup?

    When reheating from the freezer, let the carrot soup thaw naturally and then heat in the microwave or on the stove top. Just skip the thawing step if reheating from the fridge.

    Is this carrot soup gluten-free?

    Yes! This recipe is naturally gluten-free so you don’t need to make any changes.

    What Do You Eat With Carrot Soup?

    Vegan carrot soup is a very light meal, which means your sides can range from light to heavy. The great thing about soup in general is that it pairs well with countless sides.

    For example, just about any veggie side dish, would be a great addition to this meal. These Roasted Balsamic Brussel Sprouts, Loaded Sweet Potato With Spicy Black Beans and Cashew-Lime Cream, or Crispy Roast Potatoes are some of my favorites!

    Of course, salads are a classic pairing when it comes to soup. Some of my go-tos are this Easy Summer Orzo Salad, Mushroom, Lemon and Lentil Salad, or Quinoa Tabbouleh Salad.

    All kinds of bread is always a grand idea, or even a sandwich for dipping! 

    What Can I Use Carrots for?

    Oh, so you have an abundance of carrots to use up? Other than this soup, carrots are delicious treats by themselves, roasted with other veggies, or used in other soups like this vegetable soup.

    You could even make a delicious dessert like this Gluten Free Carrot Cake! When in doubt, you can always pickle any carrots you need to use up as well.
