Carrot Dill Soup
6 portions
25mI make this soup all the time! I love that it works in winter and summer and it is made all in one pot. In summer, try to use fresh dill if you can find it, and in winter, feel free to use dried dill.
What you will need
1.5 lbs Carrots
1 Onion
2 Cloves Garlic
2 Tbsp Olive Oil
.5 oz Fresh Dill
4 cups Vegetable Broth
1/8 tsp Nutmeg
Salt
Black Pepper
