Ingredients

 
1 tablespoon extra virgin coconut oil (such as Barlean’s brand)
 
3-4 cloves garlic, chopped
 
1/2 inch fresh ginger, chopped
 
1 red onion, coarsely chopped
 
2 or 3 carrots, coarsely chopped
 
Sea salt (such as Costco’s Kirkland brand), to taste
 
1 package (10-ounces) frozen chopped spinach, thawed
 
1 package (10-ounces) frozen butternut squash, semi-thawed
 
1 package (3.5 ounces) shitake mushrooms
 
3 to 4 cups organic vegetable broth (such as Pacific Natural Foods brand)
 
Juice and pulp from 1 whole lime
 
Dash of coriander (about 1/2 teaspoon), optional

Directions

Heat the extra virgin coconut oil in a large heavy soup pot over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and ginger and sauté briefly, about 30 seconds. Add the onion and carrots. Sauté 2-3 minutes, or until just tender. Season lightly with salt to taste.
Add the spinach, butternut squash, shitake mushrooms, vegetable broth, lime and coriander. Simmer 5-6 minutes (or until mushrooms are soft.)
Use a hand-held stick blender to process vegetables into a creamy soup (alternatively you can wait until the soup cools and then transfer it in batches to a blender and process until smooth and creamy.) Serve warm.
