This Irish Carrot Soup (AIP/Paleo), adapted from a recipe in an old Irish cookbook, is free of gluten, dairy, and nightshades. Simple and delicious!

Only after a lot of genealogical exploration did I learn the extent of the Irish blood running through my veins. As if the green eyes, freckles and curly, reddish hair were not clue enough… 🙄
Anyway.

My mom used to make a carrot soup from an Irish cookbook she had. I loved that soup, so when I left home, she gave me a copy of the recipe. Of course, it was full of butter and cream and all things non-compliant. I have adapted it here, staying as close to the original Irish recipe as I could. I resisted the temptation to fancy it up, and instead, left it in its simplest form. Sometimes, simple is best. 🙂
You will need a decent blender for this recipe. Mine is not fancy by any stretch, but it gets the job done. (I use this one.) Take your time with the blending part of the recipe. We want this soup to be absolutely velvety, so run it in the blender for a while. Plus, we don’t want to get burned with hot soup!
I have a few other recipes on my blog that are perfect for St. Patrick’s Day. Try these!:
…and two more coming soon!
Happy souping!
