Non-dairy alternatives to half and half

[Anonymous]

anyone had success with using an alternative ingredient. DD is lactose intolerant and wanted to try to make a soup/bisque with butternut squash.

Try this recipe. I've used delicata and butternut before when making soup this way and both are very tasty.

I make my butternut squash soup without any dairy or dairy-alternative with chicken stock as the base. Tastes great!

Agree. The BEST butternut squash soup I've made is made with a can of coconut milk. I use sliced ginger, carrots, onion, garlic, celery along with the roasted butternut squash, with a vegetable broth or chicken broth base, and add the coconut milk at the end. Then puree.
