Curry Carrot Soup

To start off the new year (and because I was bored at home), I chose to try something new tonight for dinner.  I saw several bags of carrots in the fridge from the last sale at the store that were begging to be used and began thinking of a carrot soup.  Originally I was going toward a pea soup kind of idea, but wanted something healthy and still flavorful.  I found several recipes on the internet regarding carrot curry soups and carrot and ginger soups, but nothing really struck my fancy exactly.  So, I mixed up a batch using the concepts I found online and ended up with an amazingly delicious (and healthy) soup!  Well, I didn't end up using it in a soup-like way, I put the thick puree on top of quinoa (a very healthy grain that is full of protien) and as I eat, I decided it must go into the "keep" pile of recipes.  So, here it is, for those of you interested.
