ROASTED BUTTERNUT GARLIC BISQUE

Steps:

• Step 1 Preheat oven to 400F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Step 2 Toss the squash, sweet potato, garlic, oil, salt and white pepper together in a large bowl, then spread onto the baking sheet into a single layer. Step 3 Roast in the oven for 25 minutes or until slightly more than fork-tender. Step 4 Once roasted, place the squash mixture into a large blender pitcher or food processor. Add the water (start with 1 cup), bouillon (start with 1 teaspoon), coconut milk, onion powder and cayenne to the mix and puree until very smooth. Step 5 Add the additional ½ cup water/ ½ teaspoon bouillon if you would like a thinner bisque. Step 6 Pour the bisque into a pot and warm over medium heat until it gets hot, stirring occasionally. Step 7 Serve warm, and for a fancy (but optional) garnish, place a couple dots of cashew cream on top of the bisque and drag a toothpick through them to create hearts.
