27. 1. **Prepare the Vegetables:**

29. - Slice the carrots.
30. - Chop the onion and mince the garlic.
32. 2. **Cook in a Pot (Optional):**

41. 4. **Slow Cooking Process:**
42. - Set the slow cooker to low heat and let it cook for about 6-8 hours or high heat for 3-4 hours.

47. - Blend until smooth and return it back to the slow cooker.

53. 7. **Seasoning and Final Touches:**
54. - Season with salt and pepper according to your taste.
55. - If desired, sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the top of the soup before serving for a melty, cheesy finish.
57. 8. **Serve Hot:**
58. - Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if you like.
