Thai Butternut Squash Soup – Whole30

Fall means that it’s squash season and this super easy Thai Butternut Squash Soup is soon to become one of your favorite recipes. It’s made from just a few whole-food ingredients and it packs a spicy, creamy punch that will keep you coming back for more.

In this soup recipe you can use EITHER fresh butternut squash or a couple of packages of frozen butternut squash.   I don’t know about you, but butternut squash is one of my least favorite vegetables to cut up so I always buy fresh butternut squash at the grocery store that’s already peeled and diced. It costs a teeny bit more but I think it’s worth it.

I like eating this soup as is, but Paul likes to pour it over steamed vegetables to make it more substantial.
