Vegan Gluten Free Butternut Squash Soup
Recipe Idea: Vegan Gluten Free Butternut Squash Soup Packs a Bit of a Bite
Hi. It’s Lois at Recipe Idea Shop, telling you about a fabulous Vegan Gluten Free Butternut Squash Soup. Fall is such a delicious time of year, isn’t it? Because. Butternut squash. Rich, robust, vegan and gluten free. And this soup takes about 40 minutes to make. If you buy the squash already cut up at the grocery store, you can probably put it on the table in about 30 minutes.
Potatoes add a bit of robust thickness to this Vegan Gluten Free Butternut Squash Soup. It is savory, a bit sweet and has just a little bite to it. That’s the cayenne pepper. I used coconut milk to make it creamy. Delicious!
You will have a filling, complete meal when you add a lovely garden salad and some Chewy Gluten Free Chocolate Chip Cookies to your meal.
Vegan Gluten Free Butternut Squash Soup is packed with flavor and has a little bit to it.
