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!

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. 🙂

I’m still working in my dining room and I wanted to share my new reversible sign that I got from @krumpetshomedecor. It’s a beautiful 24x9 sign that I thought it would be perfect in my dining room.

I love sitting around the table with friends and family and tell stories, laugh, play games and have a good time. I thought the side of the sign that says “Enjoy Every Moment” was perfect.

One of the things I added was my new bedding that I got from @lushdecorhome. Let me tell you, it is so luxurious. This is the 3 piece Belgian Flax Linen Rich Cotton Blend Bedspread. It is so soft and gets softer with each wash. 
💕
I have a tall bed and the ruffles just reaches the floor. The bedding is filled with cotton that gives the bedspread such a comfy feel. The bedspread is perfect for the summer, as it is lightweight, but warm enough to keep you cozy in the winter. The set comes with two pillow shams and the bedspread. It also comes in 4 colors. 
💕
I love my new bedding, it’s so feminine and simply beautiful. I couldn’t be happier. Swipe the photo to see how happy Sully is on the bedding.

Hi Everyone! I shared the reel to my Summertime ta Hi Everyone! I shared the reel to my Summertime tablescape with @JCPenney + #AllAtJCP + #sponsored +#ShoppingIsBack but you know how I love still photos better. I think you can really see the details of the decor.

💛

I am loving how simple, fresh and light my tablescape feels. It’s the perfect look I was going for. When the idea came for creating a tablescape, I was unclear of what direction I was going for until I shopped at JCPenney. I walked around the decor department and was completely inspired. They had so many styles and colors that would inspire you too.

💛

I saved a highlight of my shopping trip to JCPenney. You must check it out. I’ll be honest, I was blown away by the styles, quality and prices of there store. I will be shopping there quite frequently and you know I will take you along my journey.

💛

What is the style of your home?

💛

PS. Everything on my table is from JCPenney and it is the Linden Street Collection.

Happy Thursday! This week is just flying by, which Happy Thursday! This week is just flying by, which is okay by me. Yesterday I worked on my bedroom and it feels so good having a clean bedroom. It was a chore that I needed to get done.
🐾
My inspiration was my new pillows that I got from @downlitebedding. The name of the pillow says it all “Ahhhhhmazing™ down alternative pillow” and they are amazing.
🐾
The pillows are so soft, plush and are hypoallergenic. They are easily molded so you position your neck, head and arms. The pillows are also washable and OEKO-TEX® Certified Textiles Are Certified Free Of Harmful Chemicals. 
🐾
I’ll be honest, Downlite Bedding are the only pillows that I sleep with. They are fabulous and will last for years. I highly recommend them. They won’t disappoint you. Downlite Bedding was nice enough to give my followers a 20% off discount code to there shop: DYGEN20.

Do you sleep in your stomach, back or side?

Hello! I have to tell you that I love summer. It’s my favorite season. I love the sun, hot weather, shirts and flip flops. I could just spend all day outside.
🌻
One of my favorite things to do in the summer besides gardening is going to the Farmers Market. There is something about the atmosphere with people walking around with bags in hand, the smell of kettle corn and everyone is so happy. 
🌻
Besides the atmosphere, you can’t beat the freshly grown produce. It’s mind blowing how different it tastes, then what you get in the store. You almost forget what a strawberry is suppose to taste like until have it at the Farmers Market. Plus you are supporting your community. It’s a good feeling all around. 
🌻
I highly recommend going to the Farmers Market and pick up so corn. Soooooo good!! Stock up on your fruits and veggies and freeze it for winter.

🌸
I’m sharing with you my last photo of my peonies. I’m so sad that they didn’t last. I got about 6 days from them. I guess that’s means I need to go to Trader Joe’s and get more before peony season is over.
🌸
Do you have any summer vacation scheduled this year?

Happy Monday!! It’s back to work for me. I’ll Happy Monday!! It’s back to work for me. I’ll be counting down to my next vacation, which will be the week of the 4th of July. I will tell you, it felt so nice not having any plans and doing work in the garden.
🌻
This weekend I finally made it to the Farmers Market and I picked up these amazing sunflowers. They are such a happy flower. 
🌻
When I got them, I couldn’t resist doing a flowers in the sink photo. I haven’t done one of these since Fall. Now I may have to go back to the Farmers Market next weekend because they had so many flowers and most were only $4.00 a bundle.

Do you you like to go to the Farmers Market?

Happy Friday! My vacation is officially over and I Happy Friday! My vacation is officially over and I pretty much spent the whole week working in my garden, so I apologize for all the flower photos. 
🌸
This is a view of my fenced in garden. The flowers on the left are zinnias, and next to them is beardtongue and in the background, butterfly bush.  In about a month or so, this background will pop with lots of orange from my Mexican sunflower and yellow from the black eyed susan. I just hope my black eyed susan’s make it. They are struggling. 
🌸
I have to say I have been enjoying working in the garden. It’s therapy to me. It just makes me feel good to sit back and see all your hard work start to bloom. I can’t wait to see what the garden looks like a month.
🌸
What do you like to do that you consider your therapy?
