Why I Love This Recipe
Beat the winter chill with a steaming bowl of creamy butternut squash soup. The scent of ginger and nutmeg will warm your home, and the combination of fresh squash and canned carrots add color and flavor to your family’s table.
Ingredients You'll Need
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 small onion, diced
3 cans (15 1/2 ounces each) low-sodium chicken broth
1 butternut squash (about 1 1/2 pounds), peeled and diced
1 tablespoon chopped gingerroot
1 bay leaf
1 can (8 1/4 ounces) diced carrots, drained
1 can (5 ounces) evaporated fat-free milk
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
Pepper to taste
Chopped chives or green onions, for garnish
Directions
Heat the olive oil in a large sauce pan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and saute until the onions are softened and translucent. Add the chicken broth, squash, ginger and bay leaf. Cover. Simmer until the squash is soft, about 30 minutes.
Add the carrots and heat through. Puree the soup in batches in the blender or food processor. Return to the saucepan. Stir in the evaporated milk and nutmeg. Season to taste with the pepper. Heat through. Garnish with chopped chives or scallions.
