Here is how you make Thai Butternut Coconut Soup:

Makes 6 2-cup serviingsBake the butternut squash whole (prick with fork) in a 400 degree oven for about an hour / til done. Peal, cut in half and discard seeds and stringy bits. Take the good fleshy stuff and put aside.Use a Hand Blender to pulverize 1 cut up medium onion and 2 peeled & cut up medium carrots... If you don't have a hand blender or food processer - just chop well.
