Basic Butternut Squash Soup

 Roast on a cookie sheet at 375 degrees the following:

  • Butternut squash
    • wash the outside 
    • with a sharp knife carefully cut off the stem
    • cut the squash in half top to bottom
    • remove all the seeds
    • cut in 2-3" pieces & place on cookie sheet
  • Large onion
    • cut into chunks & place on cookie sheet
  • 2 garlic cloves peeled & place on cookie sheet
Drizzle a couple T of EVOO or fave oil over the veggies as well as salt & pepper.  Roast until squash and onion are fork tender---about 40 min.

Cool until squash can be easily removed from the skin.  Place the squash meat, onion and garlic in a blender.  Add the following:

  • Can of Organic Full Fat Coconut Cream
  • 1/2 c or more if needed of chicken bone broth or low sodium vegetable broth to desired consistency
  • 1/2-1 tsp sage
  • Heavy sprinkle of cayenne pepper
  • Salt and pepper to taste (s & p don't count in Lucky 7)

Puree and taste....add more of anything desired from above.  Reheat gently on the stove on low heat.

LUCKY 7 add-on option:  serve with sprouted pumpkin seeds, dollop of homemade cashew sour cream (on blog), chopped fresh sage, or sprinkle of cinnamon or little nutmeg

7 & done!  Enjoy!!
