  1. FABULOUS!!! DH immediately gave 5 stars and I completely agree - I wasn't sure how these spices were going to combine, but it was perfect and I plan to make again and again during fall and winter months. I made quick work of slicing the carrots by using my food processor and 4mm blade and I only needed to simmer for an additional 10 min instead of 20 since the carrots were so thin. Other than reducing the oil to 1 teaspoon to save a few calories I didn't change a thing and I wouldn't change a thing the next time either! It smelled like pumpkin pie while cooking and DS even asked if it was pumpkin soup. I didn't use the vanilla yogurt, salt and pepper or chives; didn't miss them a bit. Elegant and economical - all around great soup, Redsie!
     
  2. This recipe sounded really intriguing to me, and smelled wonderful as it cooked. However, I think the sweetness of the honey in the soup was something that didn't really appeal to me after all.
