The ingredients for Butternut Squash Bisque (vegan - uses coconut milk!) are:

1 large butternut squash, peeled, cubed, and seeded
2 apples, seeded and chopped (leave the skin on!)
3 leeks, edible portion (trim off the tough top dark green part)
4 shallots, chopped
.25 cup coconut oil
6 cups veg broth
1 can light coconut milk
2 T curry powder
Salt and pepper to taste
Cilantro for garnish

Here is how you make Butternut Squash Bisque (vegan - uses coconut milk!):

In a large pot (biggest one you have), heat coconut oil until melted. Saute the shallots and the leeks with a little salt until they're softened. Then, add everything BUT the coconut milk - ensuring that liquid covers everything (if your squash is particularly large, you may need to add more broth or water, no biggie). Bring it all to a boil, then lower to a simmer and cook about 25 minutes - you'lll know it's done when a squash cube easily smooshes with a wooden spoon. Add the coconut milk, then use a blender to puree the whole thing. Add salt, pepper, and/or additional curry to taste... garnish with cilantro, if desired.Serving Size: Makes 8 really generous servingsNumber of Servings: 8Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user SHAKINGTHETREE.
