Creamy Squash Soup by Treverva

Ingredients

1 medium kabocha squash 1 yellow onion, roughly chopped 2 cloves garlic, smashed (optional - I like it both ways) 2 tablespoons vegetable broth 1¼ cup non-dairy milk ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper toasted walnuts salt to taste 1 tablespoon nutritional yeast (optional)

Instructions

Cut the squash into wedges. Scoop out the seeds, cut off the rind, and dice the squash.
Heat the vegetable broth in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add the squash, onion, and garlic. Sprinkle with a little salt and saute until lightly browned and the squash is cooked through.
Place the cooked squash in a blender and add the milk and cayenne. Blend for 3-5 minutes or until the mixture is very smooth. Season generously with salt. Top each serving with toasted walnuts and nutritional yeast
