    When it comes to immunity, every little bit helps, right? And foods rich in antioxidants, like this dairy-free carrot ginger soup, provide various micronutrients needed to stave off viruses. The ingredients are simple and inexpensive, and the recipe is remarkably easy. So what’s your excuse? Enjoy a warm bowl for lunch!

    Dairy-Free Carrot Ginger Soup Recipe with Immune-Boosting Benefits - naturally plant-based, allergy-friendly, anti-inflammatory, and rich in antioxidants

    Dairy-Free Carrot Ginger Soup with Immune-Boosting Benefits

    Together, carrot and ginger provide a good dose of antioxidants and other compounds to support your immune system and fight inflammation. For even more antioxidants, and cost savings, you can make your own stock using vegetable scraps, like those carrot peels and ginger skins.

    And lest you be concerned that boiling carrots defeats the nutrition Some vegetables become more nutritious when cooked, including carrots. The heating process helps to increase the beta-carotene availability in carrots, a precursor to vitamin A that helps our immune system, vision maintenance, and bone health.

    As a heads up, boiling ginger for longer periods of time can reduce some of its powerful healthy benefits. If you want to get the most from ginger, add it about 5 minutes before the dairy-free carrot ginger soup is done simmering. But a word o warning: if done this way, the soup will have a more potent ginger taste.

    Recipe type: Soup
    Cuisine: British
    Serves: 4 servings
    Ingredients
    • 1 teaspoon olive oil
    • 1 medium onion, peeled and chopped
    • 1-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and grated
    • 2 garlic cloves, peeled and crushed
