This recipe is from my friend, @jazmintylerfitness. Her free e-book has a 4-week workout plan along with simple, healthy recipes. I am obsessed, and almost live by everything in the e-book! Go check her out!

Warm, hearty, and full of plant-based protein, this kabocha soup is perfect for a cold, rainy day. With all this time on your hands due to the safer-at-home mandate, it is a great opportunity to spend time in the kitchen to try new recipes or destress.

I added Lark Ellen Farm’s Thai Coconut Nut & Seed Mix to my soup for an added crunch! The nut mix is so flavorful (there are hints of coconut, lime, and spices), all while being vegan and gluten-free.

My favorite product is the Lemon Blueberry Granola. SO GOOD!

  • prep time: 10 minutes
  • cook time: 50 minutes
  • total time: 1 hour

Servings: 8

Ingredients:

  • 1 large kabocha squash, chopped
  • 1 carton of vegetable broth
  • 1 can coconut milk
  • 2 cans chickpeas
  • 2 cups rainbow chard
  • 2 blocks of tofu
  • 1/2 tbsp curry powder
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

  1. Microwave squash for 4 minutes to make it easier to cut. Boil until you can easily poke it with a fork (around 20 minutes). Then drain the water.
  2. Blend the squash with coconut milk, veggie broth, and curry spice until smooth. Use an immersion blender or transfer to a blender. A Nutribullet works, too, but you'll have to blend 3 separate times.
  3. Add the mix back into your pot and add the chickpeas and chard. Simmer for 20 minutes until it's thickened.
  4. Top with tofu, nut mix, salt, pepper, and serve!
