Fody's Low FODMAP Carrot Potato Soup

Hopefully by now you know that both carrots and potatoes have no FODMAPs. This makes them great ingredients to work with when creating low FODMAP recipes.This low FODMAP carrot and potato soup takes advantage of the creamy, rich texture of potatoes and the color and earthy, sweet flavor of carrots. Along with Fody Shallot-Infused Olive Oil, Fody Chicken Soup Base, and Fody Lemon Herb Seasoning you can make this homemade, comforting, low FODMAP side dish in very little time.

For the Soup: Heat oil in a large Dutch oven over low-medium heat and add the scallions. Sauté until softened then add carrots, potatoes and water and Chicken Soup Base. The liquid should cover the vegetables. If it does not, add more water. Cover and bring to a simmer and cook for about 20 minutes or until vegetables are tender when pierced with a knife.

If you have an immersion blender, purée the soup right in the pot. If not, transfer the soup to a blender in batches and blend until smooth. Take care as the soup is hot; follow your blender manufacturer’s instructions.

Add the milk of choice and Fody's Low FODMAP Lemon Herb Seasoning and blend until smooth. Thin out with more water, if necessary. Taste and adjust seasoning, as needed. Heat to desired temperature and serve.

For the Optional Cheese Croutons, preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Brush both sides of baguette with a little oil and place on a baking sheet pan. Toast for a few minutes in hot oven, turning over once, to brown both sides. Sprinkle some cheese on each piece and return to oven until melted. Float a melty-cheese crouton on each serving of your low FODMAP soup.
