Slow Cooker Thai Butternut Squash Soup

yield: 4 (1 3/4 CUPS) SERVINGS

INGREDIENTS:

• 2 lbs peeled and cut butternut squash (in roughly 1" chunks)
• 2 cups low sodium fat free chicken broth (or vegetable broth to make this vegetarian)
• 2 cups unsweetened coconut milk (the beverage, not the canned kind)
• ¼ cup chopped onion
• 1 tablespoon packed brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon low sodium soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon sriracha hot sauce
• 2 tablespoons lime juice
• 1 tablespoon lime zest
• ¼ cup chopped fresh basil
• ¼ cup chopped peanuts

DIRECTIONS:

1. Combine the squash, broth, coconut milk, onion, brown sugar, soy sauce and sriracha in a slow cooker and stir together. Cover and cook on low for 4-5 hours or on high for 2-2 ½ hours.
2. When the soup is done cooking, use an immersion blender to blend the ingredients until smooth (if you don't have an immersion blender you can transfer the soup to a normal blender in batches and blend until smooth). Add the lime juice and stir together until combined.
3. In a separate dish, stir together the lime zest, basil and peanuts to use as a topping. Each 1 ¾ cup serving of soup should be served with about 2 tablespoons of topping.
