Carrot Broccoli Ginger Soup

This creamy vegan carrot broccoli ginger soup gets its creaminess from smoothly pureed carrots, white beans, and coconut milk. You’ll be shocked to discover how rich it tastes even though there’s absolutely no heavy cream or butter added, which most bisques like this have lots of.
