Creamy Carrot Soup
Carrots are a siman for an increase in our spiritual merits. It’s a play on words; carrots in Yiddish are merren which also means “many.” Wishing that we had more mitzvos on our record this time of year isn’t a shoulda-coulda-woulda guilt trip. It’s a commitment for the future.

HI Jamie- This looks delish! Wanna try making this for pesach. Is coconut milk kosher for pesach?
I am so sorry I don’t believe I have seen coconut milk with a reliable kosher for passover certification BUT you could make your own: AHHHHH
but you can make your own, we have a recipe for making your own in this chocolate pudding recipe http://www.joyofkosher.com/recipe/decadent-chocolate-pudding/)Good Luck! Not very Quick & Kosher but cool to have a homemade coconut milk recipe nonetheless.
Actually, Jamie, here in Israel I have found Pesachdik coconut milk – I believe I bought it in Cheaperkol last year.I can’t promise it will ever be available again (just the way things work here, especially for Pesach), but it is a possibility!
