Sweet Squash Soup Recipe
Ingredients:
1 large butternut or buttercup squash 1 1/2 cup sliced onion 1 1/2 cup peeled and chopped apple 1 cup chopped carrot 2 to 3 teaspoons minced fresh ginger 5 cup water
Instructions:
Put the whole squash in a microwave oven and cook on high power for 8 minutes. Peel the squash and cut into cubes. (If you don't have a microwave oven, this step may be omitted. This brief cooking time simply makes the squash easier to peel and cut up.) Place all of the ingredients in a large soup pot and simmer over medium-low heat for 45 minutes. Place the soup in a blender or food processor, in batches, and blend until smooth and creamy.
It's straight out of the New McDougall Cookbook, but you may have just flipped past it, as I did many times. It's definitely worth making. It's slightly sweet and the ginger subtlety blends with the other flavors. The only possible modification I'd make is to use less water. I ended up dumping some of the liquid (maybe 2 cups) after the soup had simmered, and then blended it. The result was very creamy and very delicious.
