INGREDIENTS
butternut squash
sweet potatoes (2-3)
one white or sweet onion
3-4 cloves of garlic
1qt. chicken broth (or more to cover potatoes and squash)
1 tsp. cinnamon
1/2 tsp. nutmeg
1/2 tsp. thyme
s+p to taste (I like a lot of black pepper!) 
1c. whipping cream or coconut milk
DIRECTIONS
- Chop onions and mince garlic. 
- Put a spoonful of coconut oil into the dutch over and turn on heat. Add onions and garlic and sauté. 
- Add in herbs and spices and stir in. Continue to cook until onions are soft. 
- Cube squash and sweet potatoes into small pieces to cook faster and evenly. 
- Add to dutch oven and sauté. Best to get a bit of browning to the dutch oven for excellent flavors. 
- Pour a small bit of broth into the dutch oven to simmer and scrape the sides where onions and squash have browned. Stir until mixed and simmer for a bit. 
- Pour in the remaining broth and rise to a boil. Lower to simmer and cook until soft. 
- Once potatoes and squash are cooked through, puree everything together. Add in cream (or coconut cream if you’re dairy free) and stir/blend together. Taste for salt/pepper levels. 
Best to serve with a grilled sourdough turkey and cheese sandwich. Add roasted/salted pumpkin seeds to the soup for a little crunch.
