Carrot & Cashew Soup [vegan] by The Flexitarian

This vegan Carrot & Cashew Soup is a warming blend of carrot, apple, curry, cashews and ginger. Smooth and velvety, it is delicious with some crusty bread.

This recipe makes a nice change from the traditional Carrot & Coriander soup or my Red Lentil and Carrot Coconut Soup.

The cashews add some creaminess so you can do without dairy cream. The ginger gives this soup a little bit of a kick which is perfect when you need a warming meal.

    I made this, it’s great, very light and tasty with the ginger, good source of protein with the cashews but is it really 1178 calories?
    Cashews are high in calories but they should only come to about 375 calories for the whole thing….. not even per serving!
    The calorie count must be an error unless I am missing something.
    I love your recipes
