- Peel or scrub carrots. Slice into thick coins; you should have about 8 cups.
- Place carrots in Multipurpose Steamer and toss with seasoning and oil. Cover and microwave on high 13–14 min, or until soft, stirring halfway through.
- Meanwhile, in a large pot or Dutch oven, whisk broth mix and water. Bring to a boil.
- Add cooked carrots to pot. Reduce heat to medium and simmer 2 min. Squeeze in lemon juice.
- Purée soup using an immersion or standard blender (working in batches). For a smoother texture, strain soup through a fine mesh strainer, if desired.
- Taste and season with salt and pepper. Ladle into bowls and add toppings, if desired.
The longer you cook the carrots, the softer they will become. For an extra velvety texture, simmer the carrots in the broth a little longer.
Serve with 4 oz (113 g) lean protein and a small dinner roll.
