We'll have to be clever - like a mad scientist in the kitchen (I'm rubbing my two hands together because I'm very excited to share this sweet kid-favorite soup with you)!
Is this soup the real deal?
As for my son, he loves to eat carrots...just not when they are cooked (go figure...yeesh).
Yet, they both willingly eat carrots when served in this pureed Carrot and Sweet Potato Soup.
What's in the Soup?
Which brings me to the ONE rule about making this Carrot and Sweet Potato Soup when serving it to picky vegetable eaters...DO NOT TALK ABOUT what's in the soup!
Simply let this flavorful potion of healthy ingredients work its sweet, sweet magic!
To see how my two kids rate this super healthy soup (out of 10), click on the pic below to watch on YouTube. Their responses surprised me!
