Stir in 1 tbsp chopped crystallized ginger and 1/4 tsp each turmeric, ground cumin and cinnamon. Add 3 cups sliced Cook's Custom Blend carrots, 2 cups peeled and cubed butternut squash and cover with water. Simmer for 45 minutes until carrots and squash are softened then puree in a blender with 1 cup yogurt. Serve hot or chilled.
