Creamy Butternut Squash Soup (Vegan) / Winner of GO Veggie!!

November 27, 2013 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 6 Comments

Hi Everyone,

Are you getting ready for Thanksgiving?  I am enjoying the day off, and prepping for the big day! I’m going to be cutting veggies, making dips, pumpkin pie, bread crumbs, cleaning the house and kitchen. I actually like days like this. It’s not frantic, it’s kind of move at your own pace and just do what you can. I just hope I don’t forget something at the store so I don’t have to run out because I plan on staying in my pajama pants! 🙂 Since I am relaxing today, making the house cozy and warm, I thought I would share with you a soup that is perfect for these kind of days.
Creamy Butternut Squash Soup (Vegan)
This is my Creamy Butternut Squash Soup. It’s sweet, a tad spicy, but not much and oh so creamy and rich. I am LOVING it! I made this soup especially for me. No one in my house will eat butternut squash, so all those recipes with squash that you see me post, is all me!!  I don’t get how you can’t like butternut squash?  Mu Husband wouldn’t even try it, he is crazy!!  Now that I think of it, he really doesn’t like any orange fruit or vegetables,except for carrots.  Hmmmmm
Creamy Butternut Squash Soup (Vegan)
The soup is very simple to make! You need about 30 minutes total time and your soup is done. It’s actually perfect for making a big batch of it and having for lunches throughout the week or pairing it with a salad or sandwich or best yet, serving it as a pre-dinner appetizer. The soup is the perfect Fall dish. To make it I sautéed onions,half a jalapeno and sage in butter, added the butternut squash and vegetable stock and cooked it for about 20 minutes until the squash was for tender. Poured in the coconut milk and cinnamon and bam your soup is done. How quick is that?  The coconut milk is what gives it a creamy texture. If you’re not vegan, you could use half and half.  Oh and to make this even quicker, I used Trader Joe’s cut up butternut squash.  I love that I didn’t have to prep my squash for the soup!

Total time

A thick, rich, creamy soup made with sweet butternut squash and spicy jalapeno with just a hint of cinnamon.
Serves: 7 cups
Ingredients
  • 1 tbsp. butter (I used Earth Balance)
  • ½ cup onion, sliced
  • ½ jalapeno, seeded, sliced
  • 2 sage leafs, diced
  • 2 lbs. (6¾ cups) butternut squash, peeled, cut up into chunks
  • 4 cups vegetable or chicken broth
  • ¼ tsp. ground cinnamon
  • 1 cup coconut milk from carton (Do not use canned)
Instructions
  1. In a large pot, over medium heat, add butter, onion, jalapeno and sage; cook for about 8 minutes or until onions are translucent. Add butternut squash and broth; cook for 20 - 25 minutes or until squash is fork tender.
  2. With a hand immersion blender,process the squash until smooth. (If you do not have a hand immersion blender, with a slotted spoon take the squash out and process in a blender until smooth. Add squash back into pot.) Stir in cinnamon and coconut milk and cook for another 5 minutes for the flavors to combine and soup thickens.
  3. Serve in a bowl and top with goat cheese, maple bacon, pumpkin seeds or even a dash more cinnamon. Omit the cheese and bacon toppings to keep it vegan.

Cream Butternut Squash Soup
I topped my soup with goat cheese, pumpkin seeds and a slice of maple bacon that I had left over. Oh my gosh it tasted amazing together. The maple glazed bacon is a perfect pairing with this soup. Oh and get this, without the toppings the soup is only 89 calories a cup!! You have to love that for a cream based soup, No one would even notice there wasn’t actual cream in it. Oh and you don’t taste the coconut.

Well time for me to get going! Need to get my rest for my big day of cleaning and dancing!  Yup, cranking up the music and dancing with the mop!  🙂

Have a wonderful day!


Toodles,

Jennifer

P.S.  The winner of the GO Veggie gift pack is:  drum roll please…

    I was re-reading some of your fabulous recipes, and I want to tell you that VEGAN means no animal products, so this wouldn’t be a vegan recipe unless you change out the butter and the chicken broth. I would suggest an oil such as olive oil and vegetable broth instead of chicken broth. Thanks for all the time and effort you put into your posts.

      Thanks Maureen. I used Earth Balance which is vegan and for the broth I mentioned chicken or vegetable broth. That’s why I gave the option. Thank you so much for the comment. 🙂

Happy Wednesday! This past weekend I did a little Happy Wednesday! This past weekend I did a little furniture rearranging in my dining room. I decided to move my kitchen cart to the opposite side of my room, and I love it in its new spot. 
🍂
If you remember, I fixed the nail holes in this wall, so I could hang a normal picture. I love how centered my nail is. lol It’s the little things.
🍂
Now before anyone says anything. I covered my light switch with my picture. I never use it, so it doesn’t effect me. 
🍂
Speaking of pictures, how gorgeous is my sign from @krumpetshomedecor? It’s a fabulous size and I am calling it the moving sign. If you watched my reel last week, you will see that I used the spider side of the sign in my kitchen. I thought the fall side would be perfect in my dining room. Now I actually plan to move the sign again to my living room when I bring out the Fall bins. I have an idea in my head.
🍂
This little area of my home is what I am calling my transition from summer to fall. I have a little bit of rich end of summer colors with natural woods and my leaves. 
🍂
The falling leaves reversible sign is the Krumpets Home Decor deal of the week. Plus you get an additional 10% off with code: PBANDP. Link in my bio.
🍂
What is your favorite Fall color?
.
PS. I think I got the big C 🦠. So I’ll be slow getting back to you.

Hello Everyone! I have to apologize for not to get Hello Everyone! I have to apologize for not to getting to everyone’s comments yesterday. I am still working on them. I was a little overwhelmed yesterday. Typical Monday. Plus to boot my husband got the big “C”🦠 So I have been dealing with that. 
🌼
I thought I would share with you a very simple way of styling a bowl. It would be beautiful on an entry, console or dining room table. The bowl is from the Targets Studio McGee line.
🌼
Hope you have the best day.

Happy Monday! I know this is not decor, but today Happy Monday! I know this is not decor, but today is Samuels 1st birthday. I couldn’t resist showing his first year on Earth.
🐾
If you remember, I didn’t want another dog when Sampson passed last August, but Samuel was a blessing in disguise. He has helped me heal. 
🐾
I will be back tomorrow with decor. Have a wonderful Monday!

Happy Wednesday! I have to tell you that I am so e Happy Wednesday! I have to tell you that I am so excited that we put the dog crate away. It took up so much room in the kitchen and now it looks so open. I just wish my kitchen was wide enough for an island.
👻
I didn’t lose my mind decorating for Halloween. However @krumpetshomedecor is having there Fall and Halloween launch. So much fun! The sign above the door is the Krumpets Home Decor deal of the week. It is a gorgeous one. I just love both sides. I used the Halloween side right now  because it matches my coffee bar. Plus I feel that way when people come to my home with my dogs. lol

Also, the pillow and the Halloween sign on the side of the door is also from Krumpets Home Decor.

Happy Tuesday! I thought I would share one last lo Happy Tuesday! I thought I would share one last look at the guest bathroom before the Fall season arrives. Pretty soon it will be filled with pumpkins.
💙
I actually have not changed any of the decor in the bathroom since February of this year. I love how it looks and didn’t want to change it.
💙
The plants in the tub were in my living room, but with having puppies, they were eating them and they are poisonous, so I put them in the tub and they have survived and doing well.
💙
The rug on the floor is from @studiomoutdoor. It’s a vinyl rug that is so perfect for cleaning up after the dogs. Plus they don’t eat these rugs! Yes, they have eaten all the rugs in my house, except for the dining room rug. Sigh….
💙
Do you have a room in your house that you don’t want to redecorate because you like it the way it is?

Happy Monday! Boy this weekend flew by and I didn’t get much done around the house. Though I am slowly starting to put away some summer stuff. 
🍋
But before putting away the lemons, I had to do a summer tiered tray. I haven’t made a tiered tray in months. I love how light and bright it is. It matches my kitchen nicely.

Here are the sources for my tiered tray:

Happy Friday Eve! So happy it’s almost the weeke Happy Friday Eve! So happy it’s almost the weekend. This Saturday we have to take the dogs to the vet. Oh man! That’s a thing. The dogs drop dead on the driveway and refuse to go in the car. They do this going there and back. It’s a comedy scene, and so embarrassing. Not fun! lol
💙
I put together a little vignette for my kitchen counter. You are probably thinking, she always shares the kitchen. It’s because I do my day job at the kitchen counter and I get all these new ideas in my head and I just have to share. 
💙
I am loving the blue with the yellow and the green. It feels light and fresh. I also love my new candle from @candleberrycandle the scent is Bergamot Amber. It maybe my favorite scent from the collection. The scent is a mix of blue amber and oak with a vibrant burst of citrus and exotic florals. 
💙
Now through July 22nd Candleberry is having a pre-sale on the new Nouveau candle line. The official launch is August 1st. If you sign up for emails you get 15% off. 
💙
Disclosure: do not burn your candles under your cabinets. I did this to show the candle. I always burn my candles in an open area. 
💙
What are your weekend plans?

Happy Wednesday! I am excited to finally share wit Happy Wednesday! I am excited to finally share with you my coffee bar. I kept starting to decorate it, then I’d get stuck and then the season would change and there it would sit for months bare. lol
☕️
I love the new look. It’s simple, has what we need and looks light and fresh. My husband actually noticed and said it was his favorite coffee bar yet. Then brings up how he hates the white fluffy stuff I use on the shelves for Christmas. I told him, I’m using the snow again this winter. He gives me the look.
☕️
The Coffee sign is from @krumpetshomedecor. It’s reversible and I think the perfect addition to my coffee bar. The color and style go fabulous with my decor pieces. 
☕️
The sign is also the Krumpets Home Decor deal of the week. Plus you get an additional 10% off with code PBANDP. The link is in my bio.
☕️
What is your favorite type of coffee?

Hi Everybody! Happy #tiptuesday. I am sharing with Hi Everybody! Happy #tiptuesday. I am sharing with you a simple way to make your floral displays last longer. I learned this trick from a local florist.
🌸
Ingredients:
4 cups of water (1 liter)
3 tbsp. Sugar
2 tbsp. Distilled Vinegar

Add sugar and vinegar to water. Stir until dissolved. Add flowers. Try to take off as many leaves as possible.
🌸
The sugar nourishes the flowers and the vinegar will stop bacteria growth.
🌸
After I put this arrangement together, I decided to take out the yellow flowers and cut the bouquet down a little. I think it looks better. I bought these flowers from the farmers market.
