4 tbsp oil, any
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 medium yellow onion, chopped
4 cups vegetable stock
1 cup coconut milk
2 tbsp lemon juice
1 large yellow squash, cubed

Steps:

1. In a large pot, heat oil over medium. Add the garlic. Chop the onion and add it to the pot. Next add the vegetable stock, coconut milk, and lemon juice. Continue to cook over medium.

2. Cut the squash in half lengthwise. Scoop out the stringy bits and seeds. Scoop out the rest, cubing it and adding it to the soup. Cook for approximately 20 minutes.
