  • salt & pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Heat a large pot on medium heat.

Notes

During cooking, taste test and adjust seasonings to taste.

For garnish, I’ve added a drizzle of coconut milk along with basil and chili lime peanuts.

In a container, store in refrigerator up to 3 days or freeze up to 1 month.

If preferred, substitute butternut squash for pumpkin or sweet potato.
