spicy carrot soup with garlic croutons


i had a bunch of carrots left over from that time i made split pea soup. i know carrots can survive for a while before going bad but since that's almost a month ago, i figure i'd use them to make soup. i have this amazing soup book that i pretty much use for every soup i make (link here if you wanna purchase it: http://www.amazon.com/Ultimate-Soup-Bible-Anne-Sheasby/dp/0760774498). i was scanning through all the carrot soup recipes, but settled on the spicy carrot soup with garlic croutons. it's flavored with coriander, cumin, and hot chili powder...some of my favorite spices. it also called for vegetable stock but i used beef instead. i added a little more of the spices than the recipe asked for to give it a bit more flavor. i really enjoyed it and i think ryan did too. i gotta make soup to sneak him vegetables somehow!
