I was at the grocery store the other day scoping out the Pumpkin/Squash section and came across a Squash I had never seen or heard of before… a Carnival Squash.

It looks very similar to an Acorn Squash but has a cream-colored background covered with stripes and speckles of green and orange. I was intrigued, so I picked up a few to experiment with.

I found out it’s actually a hybrid of the Sweet Dumpling and Acorn Squash.

I decided to cook it the same way as I would an Acorn Squash by roasting it in the oven. I simply cut off the ends, then cut it in half lengthwise. Scooped out the seeds, spread some EVOO, Salt, and Pepper over the insides. Then baked them 25 – 30 minutes in the oven.

After doing a taste test of this Squash, I was hooked! It has a little bit more of a sweeter flavor then an Acorn Squash. So I figured it would be perfect to use in a soup!

From here I sautéed some Onion and Ginger, then added this along with the inside of the cooked Squash to my Vitamix.

Seasoned with Turmeric, Salt, and Pepper, then added a can of Full-Fat Coconut Milk.

Blended the mixture up on high speed, then added it back to my sauce pan to heat until the soup was hot again.

Garnished with a bit of Cilantro and Voila! Soup is on! 🙂
