Healthy and delicious, a perfect starter for a company dinner. The lime juice added a bright note, and the curry powder and cardamom were subtle. To save time, I cut the carrots into thin coins because my Vitamix has power. My Goya coconut water came in an 11.8 oz. can, and I opted to fill to 2 cups with water; as a result, my soup was a bit thin; it would have been better to add the 11.8 oz. and forget the rest. Warning: this filled my 70 oz. Vitamix to the Max line. This reminds me of a company dinner, but I imagine you could fill a thermos with this and snack on this all afternoon without it ruining your figure. Thank you for sharing.
