2 T. butter or ghee
and
1-2 T. of good olive oil
1/3 of red bell pepper sliced finely
2 small handfuls of shredded carrots then chopped finely
Spices: use Gluten Free & try the lower amount and add more if you want a more “herby” taste (add 1/4 t. at time to get the right taste for you)
-1/2- 3/4 t. rosemary
-1/2 – 3/4 t. basil

Then after it thoroughly cooked then let cool to put in a blender or you can use an immersion blender. Serve in bowls or mugs hot as is or with a pinch of rosemary and dill or pinch of parmesan cheese.
Optional:
-a couple splashes of Lactose Free, Organic Half and Half (also found at Whole Foods and Sprouts)
