Winter Squash in Coconut Milk (Fusion Soup) image

Is it sweet? Is it savory? Eat it warm? Eat it cold? Puree it? Leave it chunky? Yes to all! Start or finish the meal; add more brown sugar or honey if you like it sweeter. It's good every which way. For a low fat version, skip the butter and use lite coconut milk. From Mark Bittman in the New York Times. Prep time does not include time to cool.

This soup is a great way to use up leftover winter squash. I had some roasted butternut squash that I used and it worked perfectly.

I added some chopped spinach to my soup and it was a great addition. I also used a bit less coconut milk than the recipe called for and it was still plenty creamy.
