Health Highlights

Ingredients


8 cup chopped Carrots (peeled and cut in thirds)
5 cup Chicken broth (stock), low sodium (look for Low FODMAP broth that is garlic and onion free or substitute with water)
1 tbsp minced Ginger root (Fresh or jarred)
1 pinch Salt and pepper (to taste)
1 cup Kale (cut in thin strips)
2 tsp Olive Oil, Extra Virgin
2/3 cup whole/halves Macadamia nuts, unsalted

Instructions


  1. Add carrots, broth and ginger in large stock pot over high heat until boiling.
  2. Reduce heat to medium and simmer until carrots are fork tender, about 20 minutes.
  3. Add a bit of salt and pepper to season the soup.
  4. Remove from heat and let cool for about 20 minutes.
  5. Meanwhile, cook up kale and nuts; preheat oven to 350 degrees.
    • Line cookie sheet with parchment. Place kale and nuts on cookie sheet--in separate sections as they cook for different length of time.
    • Drizzle oil over kale and massage oil into kale evenly.
    • Sprinkle kale with a dash of salt.
    • Bake kale and nuts. Nuts will be toasted in about 5 minutes; when toasted remove and set aside and return cookie sheet to oven. Bake kale for about another 8-10 minutes being careful not to burn. Stir occasionally for even cooking. Kale should be texture of tissue paper-light and airy.
  6. When soup cools a bit, add to blender and puree for about 3 minutes.
  7. Return soup to stockpot and reheat to warm.
  8. Serve soup in soup bowls, top with kale shreds and toasted macadamias.
