THAI COCONUT CURRY
BUTTERNUT SQUASH SOUP
This
soup is absolutely comfort food in the best way but, surprise! It also happens
to be vegan. Yes, vegan. The trick (if it could even be called that) is
to combine silky puréed butternut squash with creamy, rich coconut
milk. The texture becomes as smooth as bisque, without a drop of dairy.
