An easily digestible meal that supports goals for hormonal balance and sustained energy (serves 1-2).

Ingredients:

• 300g carrots, chopped
• 1 onion, chopped
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 1 tsp ginger, grated
• 1/2 tsp nutmeg
• 500ml vegetable broth
• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

1. Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and grated ginger. Sauté for 3-5 minutes until the onion becomes soft.
2. Stir in the chopped carrots and nutmeg, allowing them to coat with the oil and spices. Let the carrots cook for about 2 minutes.
3. Pour in the vegetable broth, and bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let the soup simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the carrots are tender and easily pierced with a fork. 
4. Once the carrots are soft, use an immersion blender directly in the pot or transfer the soup to a regular blender. Blend until the soup reaches a smooth, creamy consistency. If the soup is too thick, you can add more broth or water to achieve your desired texture.
5. Taste the soup and adjust with salt and pepper as needed. Serve warm and enjoy the comforting flavors.
6. For additional protein, serve with a side of grilled chicken, lentils or a boiled egg.
