Carrot Tomato Soup for babies, toddlers and kids

Carrot Tomato Soup for babies

Carrot tomato soup for babies, kids and whole family- We as a family love soups specially during winter season. My 5 years old daughter loves tomatoes and carrots and this soup is among her favourites among with corn soup. I have been giving this carrot tomato soup to her since she was about a year old.

This is a very simple tomato soup which can be made in a jiffy and is very nutritious as well as delicious. 

I have used the red carrot which is in season these days, but if you do not get it, you may also use the regular orange carrots. The red carrot gives it a nice sweetness and colour though. Also, I prefer to use tomato which are are not very tangy.
