Soup is a staple of any meal to have while cozying up on the couch under a blanket with a scary movie playing on the TV. This exquisite orange soup fits right in with the Halloween theme and tastes amazing at the same time.
Ingredients:
1 butternut squash
1 apple
1 carrot
1 onion
Garlic
Vegetable broth
Coconut milk (or half and half/heavy cream)
Seasonings: sage, cayenne, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, black pepper)
Steps:
1. Chop up your ingredients.
2. Sauté the onions in a skillet until golden brown in color in some olive oil. Then add the garlic. Turn off the heat when the garlic becomes aromatic.
3. Put the other ingredients in a pot and add about 4 cups of broth. Add the seasonings except for sage. Cook until vegetables are tender. Then add in the onion, garlic, and coconut milk.
4. Use a blender to purée the soup until it’s smooth. I recommend doing it in sections. Add seasoning to your taste.
5. To plate, add sage on top to garnish and toast up your favorite bread.
