Tonight make this creamy pumpkin and carrot soup with kale crisps for dinner.
My creamy pumpkin and carrot soup is so heartwarming and soothing in crazy moments life brings. I love to add a bunch of fresh thyme, my favourite herb, to add freshness and earthy flavors. 
There is a comforting sweet and nutty taste from both butternut pumpkin (squash) and carrots. This soup is rich in vitamins and minerals and it give a boost to your immune system, which we all need after the holidays. I like to serve with with roasted pumpkin seeds and drizzled with pumpkin oil (a Slovenian tradition).
Since I have been making a lot of Cheesy Kale Chips lately, I tried to serve it with the soup and are a perfect fit!
