Raw Carrot Brazil Nut Soup

Recipe Courtesy of Healing the Vegan Way

This raw creamy and bright colored soup, besides being maximally tasty, is a potpourri of ingredients and super spices that provide maximum nutrition. Avocado and Brazil nuts provide the healthy fats that are needed with every meal to aid in nutrient absorption, carrot and lemon juice provide a direct shot of vitamins A and C, and ginger and turmeric are superfoods in a category all their own! The soup is also delicious served warm for an un-raw version; simply heat on the stove over medium heat until just warm. Top with chopped avocado and a vegan sour cream.
