03 Dec BUTTERNUT SQUASH SOUP
My family loves soup! It’s a great way to start off any
meal and sneak some extra veggies into the kids.
One of their favorites is butternut squash soup.
I love roasting the veggies first because it adds a real
depth of flavor. This recipe makes a big pot of soup, feel
free to half or make it all and freeze the leftovers, they
reheat wonderfully.
INGREDIENTS:
2 32 oz boxes of cut
butternut squash – I buy
them at Costco
2 large onions chopped
2 green apples, peeled
and chopped
64 oz of chicken or
vegetable stock
8 oz apple juice
salt and pepper to taste
DIRECTIONS:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lay butternut
squash, onions and apples on baking sheet.
Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and
pepper. Roast for 45 minutes until edges start
to brown and caramelize. Remove from oven
and put into large stock pot. Add broth and
apple juice. Bring to a boil and let simmer for
45 minutes. Remove from heat and use and immersion blender to puree until smooth.
Season with salt and pepper to taste.
