I like butternut squash. I like coconut. Together they are even better. This is a great appetizer or snack or even a side dish for a meal.

Ingredients

1 tbsp peanut (or coconut) oil 120 kcal
1 small onion, chopped 30 kcal
1 heaping tbsp Thai Kitchen green curry paste 10 kcal
1/4 cup white wine, sherry, or rice vinegar 97 kcal (75% boils off as alcohol)
1 tbsp Thai Kitchen red chili paste 50 kcal
1 cup veggie or chicken broth 10 kcal
1 can light coconut milk 320 kcal
6 cups peeled and cubed butternut squash (the equivalent of one small butternut squash) 380 kcal

Instructions

  1. Chop veggies.
  2. Sautee onion in oil until soft and translucent. Deglaze pan with wine, sherry, or rice vinegar
  3. Add remaining ingredients. Simmer until squash is tender (the smaller the cubes, the faster this happens).
  4. Puree and serve. (A hand mixer or food processor work best. A blender will do too.)
