When the cold weather arrives, there's nothing like a good bowl of soup to warm up your body and soul. I like all kinds of soups, particularly creamy ones like this one. It's easy to make and super- healthy!
NGREDIENTS:
1 large butternut squash
1/2 yellow onion
4 garlic cloves
1 celery rib chopped finely
1.5 TBS Ghee
1/2 tspn Thyme
Black pepper to taste
2 TBS Fresh parsley chopped
6 cups Vegetable broth (I use Rapunzel organic veggie broth cubes plus 6 cups water)
DIRECTIONS:
Sauté minced onions and garlic on medium heat in Ghee till golden. Add celery and sauté for 5 more minutes or until soft on low/medium heat. Add in the peeled, cored & chopped butternut squash and broth/ or water and boullion cubes. Bring to a boil on high, then add in the thyme and simmer on low/medium heat until squash is soft. Puree 2/3 of the soup and mix with the rest to add some bite and texture to the soup. Garnish with fresh parsley and black pepper to taste. Enjoy!
