Just Carrots Soup (not for HCG P2 or P3)

Ingredients

• 1 lb baby carrots
• 1/2 large onions, diced
• 2 tablespoons cumin, powdered
• 1 tablespoon chives, dried and sliced
• 1 tablespoon dried celery flakes
• 1 teaspoon garlic, powdered
• 1 teaspoon oregano
• 1/2-1 teaspoon mustard, finely ground (optional)
• 1/4-1/2 teaspoon red chili powder (optional)
• 1 pinch cumin seeds (optional)
• 5 tablespoons Braggs liquid aminos
• water ( probably about 8 cups)

Directions

1. Clean and cut carrots. In halves, slices, however you want. The smaller the carrot pieces, the faster this will be finished.
2. Put carrots in large pot on medium heat and add enough water to cover them fully. Add diced onions.
3. Once water comes to a boil, take a hand potato masher and mash the carrots and onions. Repeat often over a 30-45 minute period. Optionally, you can remove half or all of the mixture to a blender (or use a stick blender) and puree it for a finer, easier creamy soup.
4. Add spices listed (all are optional if you don't want to have all of them or you can add your own preferred spices) and the 5 tablespoons Bragg Liquid Aminos. Be sure to stir thoroughly. (You may want to add more water to make your soup more liquid. I recommend adding 1 tablespoons Bragg Liquid Aminos to every cup of water added. If you want a 'saltier' soup, just add more Bragg Liquid Aminos since it's healthier than salt.).
5. Lower heat to low-medium and let simmer for 10-20 minutes. Then serve and garnish if you want to. =).
