Paleo Butternut Squash Soup Recipe looks wonderful to try. This would be something different for my family and I would serve it with a tasty whole wheat roll.
I love butternut squash but oddly enough have never made it into soup. I think this would be a nice meal with crusty bread or a sandwich. It looks so good.
I always end up with so much squash from my garden. This sounds like a great soup to make and freeze for a wonderful tret for a cold winter day.
Yummy! Prefect soup to make this rainy weekend.
Would love to try this soup recipe.Our local high end restaurant puts on Christmas dinner @ our Soup Kitchen,and that was the soup they served last year!
It sounds so delicious! Thanks for the recipe.
I LOVE butternut squash soup! This recipe, with the coconut milk, looks like it takes the recipe over the top! Definitely going to make this!
I have always wanted to try this, thanks for the recipe. Can’t wait to try.
I love Panera squash soup so I’m sure I would like this!
This soup is something I would like to try, but why Paleo? What does the Paleo diet offer that you can’t get from eating just plain organic fresh foods?
Hi Christa, if you look up what Paleo means you’ll have your answer, just a term to use for what you’re saying 😉
I LOVE BUTTERNUT SQUASH SO I KNOW I WILL ENJOY THIS. I THINK I WILL MAKE THIS FOR THE WEEKEND.
Thank you for the recipe, it looks like what Mum used to make for us. 🙂
This sounds really yummy! I love butternut squash but hadn’t thought of it as a soup.
This is one of my favorite soups, I will have to try your recipe out and I love that I can freeze this so I can make it in large batches.

This is so amazing to me coming from a family of chicken and tomatoe soup only I’ve never even tried butternut squash and this looks so delicious I’m hopeful that I can provide a more interesting bigger more comforting menu to my son than what was offered to me as a child I want him to have a happy life
Love butternut squash but hate to cut it up. But I have found it in the frozen food section so I use it more often now. Yes I do give in and buy the smaller one which are easier to cut up. This looks so easy and simple that i would fix today but no coconut milk on hand. And thanks for letting us know that this freezes well. I am a senior so I like to fix a nice size batch of soups/chili and freeze in ziplock bags.
This is one of my favorite fall soups or for that matter, one of my favorite soups all year long.
I imagine this soup is a real healthy choice and it sounds like an easy recipe. I never ate butternut squash but might be willing to try.
I love a good squash soup but, unfortunately, my kids don’t. About the only thing they all agree on and the only thing they won’t eat. They love squash but, not soup LOL. I may be doing up a big batch of this for myself to eat at work LOL
Yum! I love soup, especially in the cooler months. I have some butternut squash I want to use up, so this is perfect. The best recipes are ones where you already have all of the ingredients!
This soup recipe will be my new favourite.
This sounds wonderful–ty for the recipe!
I love soup recipes. This looks so good.
I love soup looking good
As the temperature gets cooler I start looking for new soup recipes. This sounds easy and delicious and I can experiment with pumpkin too!
I’ve never tried Butternut Squash soup but it does look delicious. Now that it’s soup weather I might give this recipe a try.
I’ve been looking for a good butternut squash soup recipe. This looks like it will work, minus the cinnamon that I am allergic to. I love adding the pumpkin seeds to it to give it a little crunch too.
This looks like a perfect cold weather soup. Plus it isn’t that complicated to make.
I like the idea of adding in curry to give it a little kick. Yum.
I’m always looking for new & scrumptious soup recipes & this definitely hits the spot! Thanks for sharing!
This soup sounds delicious. Will definitely try this recipe on a cold damp day.
