Ingredients

  • 1 large acorn squash
  • 1 - 13.6 oz can full fat coconut milk
  • 2 teaspoons curry powder - I used Trader Joe's Curry Powder Seasoning Blend
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground paprika - plus more to sprinkle on top
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon nutritional yeast - optional but does add a great savory flavor
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper - add more or less to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt - add more or less to taste
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
  • Cut acorn squash in half and scrape out seeds. Turn the squash cut side down onto a baking dish and fill the dish about a 1/4 of the way up with water. This ensures the pan won't burn and also helps cook the squash faster.
  • Bake squash for about 25 - 35 minutes or until completely fork tender.
  • Once the squash is roasted carefully scrape out the squash "meat" from the "skin" and put it in your blender.
  • Add the rest of your ingredients to the blender and turn the blender onto high for about a minute or until the mixture is smooth.
  • Add your acorn squash to a pot on the stove and bring it to a boil. Once your soup is boiling reduce the heat to low to bring it down to a simmer. Cover your pot and simmer the soup for 15 minutes. This not only warms your soup but ensures all of the seasonings taste their best.
  • Serve warm topped with a light sprinkling of paprika.

Notes

Save Time by Planning Ahead: I chose to roast my acorn squash a couple days before I planned on making this soup. I then stored it in the fridge and was able to grab it quickly when I was ready for my soup.
