    Spicy Thai Coconut and Butternut Squash Soup

    "<yoastmark

    Spicy Thai Coconut and Butternut Squash Soup is a great comfort food recipe for rough weeks when nothing seems to go your way or just when it's cooler out.  This week seemed like an especially rough week with the cold weather hitting suddenly and then losing an hour of daylight to the end of daylight savings.  It feels like I am being kicked when I am already down.  I can't wait until we get rid of time changes.

    We made a few changes to the traditional recipe to make it spicier and healthier.   If you have questions about any changes that is what the comments section is for.  We try to keep our healthy Thai recipes as healthy as possible, using as few processed ingredients as possible but love to hear how we can improve them.

    There are a few ingredients you can make from scratch to keep them healthier and simpler.  Here are our recipes for those.

    Special thanks to Cooking Classy for the inspiration for our soup.  We love their blog, check it out if you haven't already, their presentation is amazing.

    Hot soups always pair well with a grilled cheese sandwich.  Why not add a little sriracha to your grilled cheese?
