Step by Step Method

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

Step 2

Brush squash with olive oil and place face-side up on a foil lined baking sheet. Roast for 45 minutes. Remove and cut into 1 inch chunks.

Step 3

Melt butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add onion and saute until soft and translucent. Add garlic and cook until fragrant - about one minute. Add squash, carrot, green apple, and stock. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer, uncovered, for 30 minutes, stirring every once in a while.

Step 4

Remove from heat and let sit for 10-15 minutes before transferring in small batches to a blender. Puree each batch until smooth.

Step 5

Return soup to pot. Whisk in the cream, then add the four seasonings (nutmeg, cayenne, salt & pepper) to taste. Warm soup before serving. Garnish with a small dollop of sour cream and chopped parsley, if desired.

this soup worked out well for us. I did not know how much the different veggies weighed so I used 3 carrots and 1 apple. I also didn't have any half and half so used heavy cream and skipped the cayenne, but otherwise made as directed. This takes about 1 1/2 hours to make, but it fit my diet plan to a t. Thanks for sharing!
