This Fennel and Carrot Soup is velvety, spicy, savory, and can be made in about 30 minutes!

I still can’t get over that it’s November already. I think I have a hard time determining what season it is because it still feels like summer here in southern Florida. We’ve had a record breaking heat wave here (still feels like 100 degrees), so let’s just say I’m ready for some cooler temps soon.

I know most of the states are dealing with cold and snow right now so I thought I’d create a warm cozy soup for you all! 🙂

I typically make soup from whatever produce I have in the fridge that needs to be used up. This week I had Fennel and Carrots, so I figured I would experiment with this combo.

And guess what? It totally worked! Who knew the flavors of Fennel and Carrots would blend so well together!

I hope you guys love this Fennel and Carrot Soup as much as we did! It’s:

• Velvety
• Spicy
• Savory
• Comforting
• and Totally Satisfying
