Health benefits of ginger:
Anti-inflammatory properties: Ginger contains compounds called gingerols and shogaols that have anti-inflammatory effects. This makes it a natural remedy for reducing inflammation and pain in conditions such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and other inflammatory diseases.
Nausea and vomiting: Ginger has been shown to be effective in reducing nausea and vomiting, especially in pregnancy-related nausea and chemotherapy-induced nausea.
Digestive health: Ginger has been used for centuries to aid digestion and soothe digestive issues. It can also help to reduce inflammation in the gut and prevent stomach ulcers.
Immune system: Ginger has immune-boosting properties and can help to fight off infections and illnesses.
Heart health: Ginger has been shown to lower blood pressure, reduce cholesterol levels, and improve circulation, all of which can contribute to better heart health.
Easy Vegan Carrot Ginger Soup
Ingredients needed:
2-3 tbsp olive oil (plus more for drizzling the sweet potatoes)
1 small yellow onion, diced
4 large carrots, diced
1 tbsp freshly grated ginger
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 large sweet potatoes (peeled and cut into 1-inch sections)
4-5 cups vegetable broth
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Arrange the sweet potatoes on the tray, making sure that none are overlapping. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
Bake for 20 minutes, flipping the sweet potato cubes over halfway through the cooking.
Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion, diced carrots and garlic and cook until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.
Add the grated ginger and cook for another minute. Add the roasted sweet potato and vegetable broth. Bring the soup to a boil and then reduce to a simmer. Simmer for 10 minutes or until the carrots are tender.
Use an immersion blender or transfer the soup to a blender and puree until smooth. Season with salt and pepper. You can also add a dollop of coconut cream or plain dairy-free yogurt. If you’ll like some crunch, add peanuts or roasted chickpeas. Enjoy!
This soup is perfect for a quick and easy lunch or dinner. It’s also a great way to use up any extra carrots you may have on hand. Enjoy!
