Mummy’s Fast & Easy

Happy Meatless Monday!
The recipe of the day is heart-warming Coconut, Carrot, Coriander & Pecan soup.
It is incredibly easy to make and very budget-friendly. It’s got sweet and nutty flavour so kids will love it too (at least mine did).
By the way, I have recently started experimenting with coconut milk a lot in my recipes. It adds such a creamy, sweeter and oriental flavour to your meals. So stay tuned for more Coconut recipes…

And here’s what you need for today’s recipe.
