Butternut Squash, Carrot, and Cauliflower Soup


It still doesn't feel like fall (temps in the mid to high 80s, but who am I to complain?) but I was craving a nice bowl of soup. So I threw together this delicious mash-up of vegetable goodness, just in time for our 45 day Paleo Nutrition Challenge at the gym. This shiz is GOOD.


Ingredients
3-4 carrots, peeled and chopped
1 large butternut squash, peeled and cubed
1 head of cauliflower, cut into 1 inch chunks
8 oz. of chicken broth (or veggie)
1 small can of coconut milk (about 1/2 cup)
Small bunch of chives, roughly chopped
Tumeric
Salt and pepper
Pumpkin seeds (for garnish)

1. Simmer all ingredients except for coconut milk in a large sauce pan for about 20 minutes, or until veggies are very tender.

2. Using an immersion blender (a regular blender would work but be messier), blend everything until smooth. Stir in coconut milk and season more as needed. Garnish with pumpkin seeds and serve.
