Toasted Coconut Butternut Squash Soup

Lauren Rabadi · December 28, 2018 ·

This creamy and cozy soup will become your newest winter essential.
What You’ll Need
2 cups Califia Farms Toasted Coconut Almond Milk
1 medium butternut squash, peeled, cored, and cubed (about 4-5 cups)
1 granny smith apple, cored and cubed
½ yellow onion, cut into a few thick slices1 garlic clove, whole
2 tablespoons grapeseed oil
½ teaspoon sea salt
2 ½ cups vegetable broth
2 tablespoons pomegranate molasses
¼ cup pomegranate seeds
2 tablespoons toasted pumpkin seeds, or toasted coconut
¼ cup fresh parsley
Black pepper, to taste

What To Do
Preheat oven to 375° and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Place the squash, apple, onion, and garlic into a mixing bowl and drizzle on grapeseed oil. Toss the veggies well in the oil, then spread evenly onto the baking sheet, and sprinkle on sea salt. Roast for 45-55 minutes, or until squash is tender.
Transfer the roasted veggies to a dutch oven on medium-heat. Then add the vegetable broth and Toasted Coconut Almond Milk, and bring to a simmer. Cook for about 15 minutes. Allow the soup to cool until safe enough to blend in the blender. If you’re using an immersion blender to puree the soup, you can do so while it is still hot (just be careful it doesn’t splash). Blend until creamy!
Season to taste with more salt, and if necessary, reheat it on the stove before serving. Garnish with a drizzle of pomegranate molasses, pomegranate seeds, pumpkin seeds, parsley, and black pepper.

Sweet Potato Soul’s Jenné Claiborne grew up in Atlanta eating classic Soul Food—fluffy biscuits, smoky sausage, Nana’s sweet potato pie—but thought she’d have to give all that up when she went vegan. As a chef, she instead spent years tweaking and experimenting to infuse plant-based, life-giving, glow-worthy foods with the flavor and depth that feeds the soul.

When you're looking for somehing new to revive your palate after all that holiday eating, try @seafoodfromnorway_us's receipt for Norwegian Salmon with Hot Honey Glaze. Link in bio to shop ingredients

What you'll need:
1 - 8 ounce Norwegian salmon fillet, skinned, deboned and divided into two 4 ounce fillets
½ teaspoon kosher salt
¼ teaspoon ground coriander
½ teaspoon smoked paprika
¼ teaspoon fresh cracked pepper
¼ cup honey
½ teaspoon sambal
1 tablespoon sliced red or green chilies

What you'll do:
1. In a heavy bottom sauce pan over medium high heat, add honey, sambal and chilies. Simmer for about 10 minutes. Remove pan from the heat and set aside. The longer the honey sits the more flavor the chilies release.
2. In the meantime, pat salmon dry and season with salt, coriander, smoked paprika and fresh cracked pepper.
3. Add oil to a cast iron skillet over medium high heat. Once the oil is hot, add salmon to the pan, presentation side down.
4. Cook the salmon for four minutes; flip and cook for another three minutes. Top salmon with glaze while in pan, to coat each filet.
5. Transfer to serving plates, top with more chili sauce, serve with brussels sprouts or your favorite vegetable, if desired.
