Don’t be put off by “creamy”- this soup isn’t heavy or thick like a traditional cream soup. Its refreshing orange twist accentuates the pure tomato flavour.

1. In large saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Cook onion until softened, about 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in carrots; cook until onion starts to turn golden, about 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in chicken broth, tomatoes and juices. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low. Cook uncovered until carrots are very tender, about 20 minutes.
