Herby Squash Soup
It's winter and we have a veg box full of winter veg, our fridge is overflowing with it and we hate waste, what's a Paleo Dad to do?
Soup of course, the final destination for all things slightly brown, a bit passed their best or occasionally the 'what on earth is that?' veg. I made this one as we had three cauli's a 'what on earth is that?' squash and some random tiny shallots and onion about to need composting. To help with the winter chill I added enough cajun spice to feel warming but not enough to really be a cajun dish, it's definitely more herb than spice and perfect for a cold winters evening sat around a roaring (electric) fire. It's also got the toddler mark of approval, we had it with my version of coconut bread and lots and lots of butter, but you could easily sub coconut oil or another fat if you wanted.
Further research shows our unknown squash is either a crown prince squash or more likely a green kabacha squash, but any sweet tasting squash would probably do, knock yourself out.
