Creamy Butternut Squash Soup

Check out this rich and creamy soup that will warm your heart and belly!

### Ingredients:

• 1 medium butternut squash, peeled and cubed
• 1 onion, chopped
• 2 cloves of garlic, minced
• 3 cups vegetable broth
• 1 cup coconut milk
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• Fresh herbs (like parsley or thyme) for garnish

Instructions:

1. In a large pot, heat up a drizzle of olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté for about 5 minutes until it becomes translucent.
2. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute, letting those flavors meld together.
3. Now, it’s time to add the cubed butternut squash into the pot. Stir everything around to get it coated with those aromatic flavors.
4. Pour in the vegetable broth, making sure to cover all the squash. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 20-25 minutes or until the squash is tender.
5. Once the squash is perfectly soft, use an immersion blender to puree the soup until it’s smooth and creamy. If you don’t have one, carefully transfer the mixture in batches to a countertop blender.
6. Return the soup to the pot, and stir in the coconut milk for that luscious creaminess.
7. Season with salt, pepper, ground nutmeg, and cinnamon to taste. Heat the soup through until it’s nice and hot.
8. Serve warm, garnished with fresh herbs for that extra pop of flavor and color. Enjoy with some toasted bread or a light salad on the side!
