    This Whole30, Paleo and Vegan soup is so creamy and delicious and absolutely packed with flavor! It's also great for the 2B Mindset program!

    curried butternut squash soup

    Now I love a tradition butternut squash soup with apple and sage and all of that scrumptiousness. But sometimes I want something a little difference and this curried take on a classic really hits the spot. This recipe utilizes curry powder, garam marsala and ginger to really elevate the humble squash and takes it to the next level with the addition of creamy coconut milk and a squeeze of lime.

    This recipe is naturally Whole30 and Paleo compliant and can be made Vegan by subbing the chicken broth with vegetable broth. It's also a great option for those following the 2B Mindset Program. With its warm spices and luscious texture this soup is the perfect, guilt-free comfort food for a chilly day.
