Butternut Squash Soup
(adapted from All Recipes) 4-6 servings
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 medium butternut squash - peeled, seeded, and cubed
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 1 stalk celery, chopped
- 32oz chicken stock
- 1 medium carrot, chopped
- 2 medium sweet potatoes, cubed
- salt & freshly ground black pepper to taste
Directions:
1. Melt the butter in a large pot, and cook the onion, celery, carrot, potatoes & squash 5 minutes, or until lightly browned. Pour in enough of the chicken stock to cover vegetables. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover pot, and simmer 40 minutes, or until all vegetables are tender.
2. Transfer the soup to a blender, and blend until smooth. Return to pot, and mix in the remaining stock to attain desired consistency. Season with salt and pepper.
