- 2 large carrots, cut in half lengthwise
- 2 medium shallots, outer skin removed and halved

- 2 tbsp fresh thyme leaves
- 4 cup organic vegetable broth
- 1/2 cup full-fat coconut milk

How to Make Tomato and Fennel Soup :
Step One:
Preheat oven to 400°F and line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or a Silpat® baking mat. Set aside.
Step Two:
Arrange the tomatoes, red peppers, fennel, carrots, shallots, and garlic in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and black pepper, to taste. Toss to combine and sprinkle veggies with fresh thyme leaves.
