Description
A whole head of garlic mellows in the oven alongside squash, carrots, and onion in this hearty vegan recipe. Pre-cut butternut squash keeps the soup easy, and canned coconut milk and a buzz in the blender make it nice and creamy. The seasonings are simple, so don’t be shy with the salt and pepper to play up the plant-based ingredients. Top the soup off with roasted pumpkin seeds for the perfect crunchy texture and nutty flavor. Prep tip: To quickly peel the head of garlic, separate the cloves, smash them slightly with the flat side of a knife or the bottom of a cup, and then peel off the skins. The recipe is a Yummly original created by Marrekus and Krysten Wilkes of Cooks with Soul.

Great recipe! Smooth and creamy with lots of flavor. I added a pinch of thyme with the seasoning. Served with a swirl of coconut milk per the recipe, toasted pumpkin seeds and some croutons. My daughter loved this soup. I will definitely make it again.

Delicious!
Watch your garlic as you roast it- it gets done faster than the other veggies

Amazing creamy soup, I made it perfectly from the first try following the recepie. I added a bit more pepper to make it spicy and it worked out great! Amazing choice for colder weather.

Very tasty! I was tempted to add some thyme or something, but based on other caramelized root vegetable dishes I decided to just let the squash shine. If you use a low-sodium broth you will need to add what feels like a lot of salt. If you add salt and taste bit by bit, you should get a huge pop of the taste of caramelized sugar. You'll know it when you taste it. If you want to add herbs, I would consider adding some fresh sprigs as a garnish at the end. The smell alone should be more than enough to add a little extra complexity without overpowering the sweet earthiness of the squash. Especially since this is relatively lower in fat than many similar dishes, it would be easy to overpower the best part of the dish: the natural sweetness.

This soup is creamy and appropriately "Yummy." It is a blank slate as far as seasoning goes. I was tempted to add: sage or thyme or curry or apple or grated ginger. Any would enhance it! I topped with toasted, garlic buttered croutons and Mexican crema. I could have added some chives!
